Numerical Method to Determine the Inception of Propeller Tip Vortex Cavitation Based on Bubble Dynamics

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Due to the scale effect, tip vortex cavitation (TVC) is the earliest type of cavitation that occurs on real ship propellers. As a result, experts in the ship field have been paying close attention to the accurate prediction of propeller TVC inception for

Sound Hole Sound [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
The volume of air that goes in and out of a musical instrument's sound hole is related to the sound hole's contribution to the volume of the sound. Helmholtz's result for the simplest case of steady flow through an elliptical hole is reviewed. Measurements on multiple holes in sound box geometries and scales relevant to real musical instruments ...
