Abstract

The steady partially cavitating flow around two-dimensional hydrofoils was simulated numerically by the low-order potential-based boundary integration method. The cavity shape and length are determined for given cavitating numbers in the course of iteration by satisfying the kinematic and dynamic boundary conditions. The re-entrant jet model and the pressure-recovery close model are adopted to replace the high turbulent and two-phase wake forming behind the cavity. The results are compared with the other published numerical ones.
