Abstract
A linearized version of the transition-flow cavity model is used to obtain the effects of solid channel walls on cavitating hydrofoils. The formulation is in terms of two dimensional flow but includes any shape hydrofoil within the scope of the linear theory and any location of the foil between the walls. The case of the flat plate foil is considered in numerical detail. Three special cases of position, the foil midway between walls, near to only one wall, and the foil in an infinite stream (walls infinitely far apart), are taken up. The effect of the walls on lift and cavity length are discussed for each case.
