Systematic Validation Study of an Unsteady Cavitating Flow over a Hydrofoil Using Conditional Averaging: LES and PIV

We present results of Large-eddy simulations (LES) modeling of steady sheet and unsteady cloud cavitation on a two-dimensional hydrofoil which are validated against Particle image velocimetry (PIV) data. The study is performed for the angle of attack of 9° and high Reynolds numbers <inline-formul...
