Numerical Simulation of Cavitation Erosion Aggressiveness Induced by Unsteady Cloud Cavitation

A numerical investigation of the erosion aggressiveness of leading edge unsteady cloud cavitation based on the energy balance approach has been carried out to ascertain the main damaging mechanisms and the influence of the free stream flow velocity. A systematic approach has permitted the determinat...
