Cavitation experiment for the hydrofoil is carried out in a water tunnel of CSS-RC, the phenomenon in the experiment is recorded and analyzed with high speed photographic technique.展开更多

In this process, a numerical bridge from the multiphase viscous simulation of propeller cavitation hydrodynamics to its hydro-acoustics is built, and the scale effects on performances and the applicability of exist scaling law are analyzed. The effects of non-condensable gas（NCG） on cavitation inception are involved explicitly in the improved Sauer＇s cavitation model, and the cavity volume acceleration related to its characteristic length is used to produce the noise spectrum. Results show that, with the same cavitation number, the cavity extension on propeller blades increases with diameter associated with an earlier shift of the beginning point of thrust decline induced by cavitation, while the three decline slopes of thrust breakdown curves are found to be nearly the same. The power of the scaling law based on local Reynolds number around 0.9R section is determined as 0.11. As for the smallest propeller, the predominant tonal noise is located at blade passing frequency（BPF）, whereas 2BPF for the middle and both 2BPF and 3BPF for the largest, which shows the cavitating line spectrum is fully related to the interaction between non-uniform inflow and fluctuated cavity volume. The predicted spectrum level exceedance from the middle to the large propeller is 6.65 dB at BPF and 5.94 dB at 2BPF. Since it just differs less than 2 dB to the increment obtained by empirical scaling law, it is inferred that the scale effects on them are acceptable with a sufficient model scale, and so do the scaling law. The numerical implementation of cavitating hydrodynamics and hydro-acoustics prediction of propeller in big scale in wake has been completed.展开更多
