Numerical simulation of a cavitating line vortex in a converging-diverging nozzle: using RANS and SRS methods

Tip vortex cavitation was previously identified as a source of the broadband noise emitted by ships underwater. This leads to unwanted noise and vibrations on board, which reduces passenger comfort, and increases the underwater signature of naval ships. The influence of different cavitation regimes on propellers and boundary layer transition on...
