Abstract
The present study examines the effect of cavitation on the base pressure coefficient of a circular cylinder. The tests are conducted at near-constant Reynolds numbers (≈105) and a wide range of cavitation numbers. The degree of cavitation varies from noncavitating flow, to inception, to near-choking conditions. Pressure measurements along the wake axis are also obtained at various cavitation numbers. The similarity of the wake axis pressure distribution is investigated.
