Abstract
Cavitating flows around a hydrofoil are simulated in this work by using a transport equation-based model. It is shown that the original Launder-Spalding k-ε model significantly over-predicts the viscosities. The viscosity-corrected models can simulate better the cavitation characteristics including the shedding process.
