Numerical Simulation and Analysis for Influence of Wall Effect on Cavity Shape

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the experiment of cavitation, the same water tunnel with different model size will get cavity shape that is different from the result of the empirical formula under the same cavitation number. In this article, we studied the impact of wall effect on natural cavity shape and the resistance of cavitator. We get the cavity shape and resistance of cavitator under different diameter ratio. We also get the law how cavity shape and resistance of cavitator change with the diameter ratio. The results provide a reference for experiment in water tunnel and the simulation model.
