On the physical mechanism of tip vortex cavitation hysteresis

Mohamed Farhat, Matthieu Dreyer, Ali Amini, Martino Reclari

Inception and desinence thresholds of tip vortex cavitation (TVC), generated by an elliptical NACA 16-020 hydrofoil, are measured at different flow conditions for various gas contents. It is observed that TVC often disappears at cavitation indices signific ...
