Tóm tắt

The problem of a supercavitating hydrofoil of general shape with leading edge cavity detachment is addressed in linear theory in terms of unknown source and vorticity distributions on the foil and cavity. The related singular integral equations are inverted analytically and the cavitation number, the source and vorticity distributions are expressed in terms of integrals of quantities which depend only on the hydrofoil shape and the cavity length. Numerical algorithms for computing these integrals accurately and efficiently are given.
