A NUMERICAL METHOD FOR ANALYSIS OF CAVITATION ON MARINE PROPELLERS
Abstract
The paper presents a new version of the unsteady deformable lifting surface method for analysis of propeller operation in the nonuniform velocity field behind the ship hull. This new version is concentrated on possibly accurate modelling of three different forms of cavitation typical of marine propellers, namely sheet, bubble, and tip vortex cavitation. The paper presents theoretical background of the method and selected examples of the initial experimental verification.
