Cavitation due to an impacting sphere
Cavitation associated with the impact of a sphere on a flat surface is investigated using high-speed photography. The sphere, of diameter 15 or 45 mm and made from Ertacetal or stainless steel, was fully submerged and accelerated using a spring-loaded mechanism to achieve Reynolds numbers based on impact velocity and sphere radius of up to 7.2×10. The static pressure and impact velocity were va...
متن کاملBubbly Cloud Dynamics and Cavitation
In many cavitating liquid flows, when the number and concentration of the bubbles exceeds some critical level, the flow becomes unsteady and large clouds of cavitating bubbles are periodically formed and then collapse when convected into regions of higher pressure. This phenomenon is known as cloud cavitation and when it occurs it is almost always associated with a substantial increase in the c...
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 کاملShock wave measurements in cloud cavitation
One of the most destructive (and noisy) forms of cavitation is that referred to as “cloud cavitation” because it involves a large collection of bubbles which behave as a coherent whole. The present paper presents the results of an experimental study of the processes of collapse of a cavitation bubble cloud, specifically that generated by an oscillating hydrofoil in a water tunnel. Measurements ...
متن کاملNonlinear Effects in Cavitation Cloud Dynamics
This paper presents a spectral analysis of the response of a fluid containing bubbles to the motions of a wall oscillating normal to itself. First, a fourier series analysis of the RayleighPlesset equation is used to obtain an approximate solution for the nonlinear effects in the oscillations of a single bubble. This is used in the approximate solution of the oscillating wall problem and the re...
