Simulation on the Process of Cavity Wall Expansion of Cone at Constant Speed Water-Entry

Article Preview

Abstract:

Computational simulation investigation which is based on the Navier-Stokes equation, finite-volume method, dynamic mesh method, and volume of fluid method, was carried out principally on the constant speed vertical water entry of the cone with 75 degree and a half angle. Based on this, the cavity generation and the process of cavity wall expansion of the cone with 75 degree and a half angle were analyzed. Through analyzing the expansion dynamic for the cavity wall in different depths, the velocity and acceleration with time in the process of cavity wall expansion were obtained, and the disturbances and splash feature laws of the free surface near the entrance of the cavity after cones water-entry were analyzed too.
