A TRANSPORT EQUATION MODEL FOR SIMULATING CAVITATION FLOWS IN MINIATURE MACHINES
Preview AbstractA new transport equation model is proposed for simulating cavitating flows in miniature machines. In the developed model, the surface tension, viscous force, and thermal effect of cavitation are considered to reflect their influence on the cavitation bubble growth. The cavitating flow in a miniature pump is calculated by applying the proposed cavitation model. The comparison between numerical results and experimental data indicates that the new cavitation model is applicable for simulating the cavitating flow in miniature machines.
