Abstract
Rotational Supercavitating Evaporator (RSCE) has been proposed as a new technology for seawater desalination. However, thermodynamic characteristics of rotational supercavitation are still vacant. In this paper, numerical simulations are conducted on the supercavitating flows around a 3D rotating blade of RSCE with different rotational speeds and extraction pressures. Energy effect is taken into consideration in the simulation and thermodynamic characteristics of rotational supercavitation are obtained. Rotational supercavitation has a larger convective heat transfer coefficient than the boiling on a heated wall.
