Evaluation of turbulence models for the numerical prediction of transient cavitation around a hydrofoil
The objective of this paper is to evaluate the predictive capability of three turbulence models for the simulation of unsteady cavitating flows around a 2D Clark-y hydrofoil. Three turbulence models were standard k-ε model, hybrid model of density correction model (DCM) and filter-based model (FBM) and an improved partially-averaged Navier-Stokes model (PANS) based on k-ε model. Using the above...
متن کاملLES of Partial Cavitation Around a 2D Plane-Convex Hydrofoil Large Eddy Simulation of Partial Cavitation Around a 2D Plane-Convex Hydrofoil
Investigations of attached partial cavitation are important because to prevent damages in hydrulic machinery and to reduce the costs. As expected computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods have been developed for more than 40 years to understand this phenomenon and to improve the machinery designs, as pumps and hydraulic turbines. However, cavitation appears at high Reynolds numbers, so that, t...
متن کاملThe transition from sheet to cloud cavitation
Recent studies indicate that the transition from sheet to cloud cavitation depends on both cavitation number and Reynolds number. In the present paper this transition is investigated analytically and a physical model is introduced. In order to include the entire process, the model consists of two parts, a model for the growth of the sheet cavity and a viscous film flow model for the so-called r...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Turbulent Flows with Sheet Cavitation
A pressure-based algorithm is developed and applied to compute turbulent sheet cavitating flows. Single-fluid Navier-Stokes equations, cast in their conservative form, along with a volume fraction transport equation are employed. The flow is computed in both phases with the vapor pressure recovered inside the cavity via a mass transfer model. A pressure-velocity-density coupling scheme along wi...
متن کاملOn the Dynamics and Acoustics of Cloud Cavitation on an Oscillating Hydrofoil
Observations have been made of the growth and collapse of surface and cloud cavitation on a finite aspect ratio hydrofoil oscillating in pitch. The cavitation was recorded using both still and high-speed motion picture photography, and the variations with cavitation number and reduced frequency of oscillation were investigated. The noise generated by the cavity collapse was also measured and an...
