Abstract: In turbopump inducers, cavitation on one blade can change incidence on the following blade, and this “blade-to-blade interaction” can lead to local cavitation instabilities such as alternate blade cavitation (ABC) and ...

Abstract: Various local cavitation instabilities in turbopump inducers (e.g., alternate blade cavitation, supersynchronous rotating cavitation) have been previously experimentally identified. However, a model that is capable of ...
