Numerical investigation of cavity dynamics and cavitation-induced vibrations of a flexible hydrofoil [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Fluid Engineering
This work investigates the cavitation and fluid–structure interaction characteristics of a flexible NACA0015 hydrofoil. The simulation incorporates the Zwart–Gerber–Belamri cavitation model and two-way fluid–structure interactions.

Experimental and Numerical Studies of Cloud Cavitation Behavior around a Reversible S-Shaped Hydrofoil

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The S-shaped hydrofoil is often used in the design of reversible machinery due to its centrally symmetrical camber line. The objective of this paper is to study the influence of cloud cavitation on the flow structure and the unsteady characteristics of ...

Partial cavity shedding on a hydrofoil resulting from re-entrant flow and bubbly shock waves

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2023
Partial cavity flows forming on a NACA0015 hydrofoil are visualized using high-speed cinematography and time-resolved X-ray densitometry. These observations reveal the underlying flow features that lead to the cloud cavity shedding. Previous studies have

Proper orthogonal decomposition analysis of the cavitating flow around a hydrofoil with an insight on the kinetic characteristics

open access: yesThe Physics of Fluids, 2023
In this research, the cavitating flow around a NACA0015(National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics) hydrofoil obtained by the large eddy simulation method is analyzed using the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) theory. Various fundamental mechanisms

Acoustic far field of a propeller working in the wake of a hydrofoil

open access: yesThe Physics of Fluids, 2023
The Ffowcs-Williams & Hawkings (FWH) acoustic analogy is adopted to reconstruct the acoustic far field of a system consisting of an upstream hydrofoil and a downstream propeller, considering the former at incidence angles of 0°, 10°, and 20°.

Numerical Simulation on Vortex Shedding from a Hydrofoil in Steady Flow

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
This paper presents a numerical modeling procedure for the idealization of vortex shedding effects in the wake flow field of a NACA0009 hydrofoil. During the simulation, the lift and drag acting on the hydrofoil were monitored, and the vortex-shedding ...

An experimental study of boundary-layer transition induced vibrations on a hydrofoil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper aims at characterizing experimentally laminar to turbulent transition induced vibrations. Here, the transition is known to be triggered by a Laminar Separation Bubble that results from a laminar separation of the boundary-layer flow on a ...

Hydrofoils and Hydrofoil Craft [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 1973
At the present time several hundred hydrofoilcraft are in service throughout the world. The upsurge in the use of these craft did not really begin until the late 1950s, although fascination with the idea of supporting small boats with underwater wings dates well back into the nineteenth century.
