Verification and Validation of Large Eddy Simulation for Tip Clearance Vortex Cavitating Flow in a Waterjet Pump

In this paper, large eddy simulation (LES) was adopted to simulate the cavitating flow in a waterjet pump with emphasis on the tip clearance flow. The numerical results agree well with the experimental observations, which indicates that the LES method can make good predictions of the unsteady cavita...
