Influence of angle of attack of flat elliptic cavitator on artificial supercavity parameters

Applied hydromechanics, Vol. 16 (88) ¹ 4, (2014) p.39-45
The results of experimental research of varying the vertical dimension of the supercavity mid-section, vertical shift of the cavity transom and the gas loss coefficient from an artificial supercavity when varying the angle of slope of flat elliptic cavitator in the range δ=± 30° are stated. In experiments, the value of the horizontal axis of elliptic cavitator was constant P1=21.5 mm, and the vertical axis value was changed by law D2=D1cos-1δ in accordance with the set angle of the cavitator slope δ=±5°; ±10°; ±20°; ±30°. The obtained results are compared with the known theoretical dependences.
