Unsteady Cloud Cavitation on a 2D Hydrofoil: Quasi-Periodic Loads and Phase-Averaged Flow Characteristics
We perform large-eddy simulations to study a cavitating flow over a two-dimensional hydrofoil section—a scaled-down profile (1:13.26) of guide vanes of a Francis turbine—using the Schnerr–Sauer cavitation model with an adaptive mesh refinement in intensive phase transition flow areas. In the test ca...
