Numerical Investigation Cavitation Buckets for Hydrofoil Parametrically

Abstract

Cavitation is a general fluid mechanics phenomenon that is appeared in system such as pumps, turbines, marine propellers and hydrofoils which induces pressure and velocity fluctuation in the fluid (Brennen, 2013). Cavitation can be defined as the formation of vapour regions due to adecrease in local pressure. Undesirable consequences which can cause a fall in the performance of a system, structural failure, production of noise and vibration, material damage, are encountered due to cavitation (Uşar, 2015). In this study, cavitation was analysed using a bucket diagram. Bucket diagram represents the cavitation behaviour of a wing, fin or propeller blade in a two dimensional sense. This diagram is plotted as a function of section (hydrofoil) angle of attack (α) versus section cavitation number (σ). Pressure distribution can be calculated on two dimensional geometry of hydrofoil by using BEM (Boundary Element Method) and cavitation bucket diagram can be computed. The cavitationinception case and partial cavitation cases have been investigated and the results of the present BEM were successfully compared with those of given in literature in the past and each other. While a constant source-dipole panel method has been used to calculate the pressure distribution at cavitation inception case, PCPAN programme that solves the sheettype of cavity on the hydrofoil by potential based panel method, has beenused to calculate pressure distribution for the cases of partial cavitation. Effects of maximum hydrofoil thickness, maximum camber and location of maximum camber on cavitation have been analyzed by means of cavitation bucklet diagrams. All results are discussed in a detailed manner.Keywords: Cavitation, cavitation bucket diagram, boundary element method, hydrofoil.
