Abstract: The single phase and cavitating tip vortex shed by a NACA 66-209 rectangular plan-form, rounded tip hydrofoil has been studied. Single-phase measurements of instantaneous flow velocity were made ...

Abstract: Cavitation Susceptibility Meter (CSM) and holographic measurements of cavitation nuclei distributions are compared in this paper. The CSM optically detects cavitation in water samples flowing through ...

Abstract: A novel hydrofoil design, consisting of a small diameter flow-through duct affixed to the tip, has been studied. The tip vortex cavitation inception index, σi , of this hydrofoil geometry is ...

Abstract: This study illustrates how the highly nonlinear elastic behavior of artery wall material can cause unusual structural characteristics that do not occur with a linear-elastic material. An example ...
