A Note on the Calculation of Supercavitating Hydrfoils with Rounded Noses [PDF]

open access: yes, 1973
Practical supercavitating hydrfoils have rounded leading edges for mechanical strength. The prediction of pressures near the leading edge of such hydrofoils by linearized free streamline theory fails because singularities are usually required there by ...
