Forced Response Measurements of Cavitation Dynamics in a Rocket Engine Turbopump Inducer
Cavitation is a serious concern in liquid fueled launch vehicle propulsion systems which operate at high speeds to meet the engine thrust requirements. There are several types of cavitation instabilities, but of concern in this work is one-dimensional planar oscillations known as cavitation surge. I...
