Prediction of cavitation dynamics and cavitation erosion around a three-dimensional twisted hydrofoil with an LES method

The Large Eddy Simulation (LES) method coupled with a Schnerr and Sauer cavitation model was adopted to simulate the unsteady cavitating flow around a Delft Twist 11 (Twist11) hydrofoil. We proposed a novel aggressiveness indicator to predict the risk of cavitation erosion on the hydrofoil surface b...
