Abstract:Micro vortex generators (mVGs) control cavitation by altering the boundary layer flow structure. This study employs the wall-adapting local eddy-viscosity large eddy simulation (WALE-LES) turbulence model combined with the Zwart–Gerber–Belamri cavitation model to conduct transient numerical simulations on the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics 0015 baseline hydrofoil and the hydrofoil equipped with mVGs under various cavitation numbers. The proper orthogonal decomposition method and experiments verify… Show more
