Abstract
In this paper, cavitation flow around hydrofoil is numerically investigated to examine the effects of viscous flux on the prediction of cavitation progress-extinction. To predict the flow field, three dimensional unsteady compressible Reynolds-Averaged Navier Stokes equations are solved. The numerical solvers are based on finite difference method and governing equations are solved as implicit manner. The viscous flux is treated as three different conditions; (1) explicit manner, (2) implicit manner with thin-layer assumption and (3) implicit manner. Based on numerical results, the effects of viscous flux are compared in terms of hydrodynamic forces on hydrofoil surfaces and the shapes of developed cavitation.
