Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent progress in the development and application of homogenous multiphase CFD methods for large-scale gas cavities in liquid flows are presented. The focus of the presentation is on work in n-species transport approaches applied to developed and super-cavitation. Numerical formulation, physical modeling, and applications are included. Numerical issues to be discussed include: preconditioning in the context of incompressible through supersonic Mach numbers, arbitrary numbers of species, high density ratios, and large gas volume/mass fractions; computational grid requirements; dual-time formulation; and general large-scale high-performance computing. Physical modeling issues to be discussed include: homogeneous mixture compressibility; mass-transfer modeling; condensable and non-condensable gas species; turbulence modeling; and 6-degree-of-freedom 6DOF flowfield/rigid-body interaction. The applications to be presented range from naturally cavitating modeled flow on simple configurations (ogives, nozzles, airfoils/wedges) to more industrially relevant, complex-geometry applications including turbomachinery (cavitation breakdown), and super-cavitation (underwater rockets, hypervelocity darts, condensable and non-condensable cavities, gas-on/off transients, twin-vortex regime). Recent applications including Detached Eddy Simulation DES of natural cavities, and 6DOF analysis of a propelled notional super-cavitating vehicle are presented.
