Supercavitation - Advances and Perspectives A collection dedicated to the 70th jubilee of Yu.N. Savchenko

This collection is dedicated to the 70th jubilee of Yu. N. Savchenko, and presents experimental, theoretical, and numerical investigations written by an international group of well-known authors. The contributions solve very important problems of the high-speed hydrodynamics,such as supersonic motion in water, drag diminishing, dynamics and stability of supercavitating vehicles, water entry and hydrodynamic performances of hydrofoils, ventilated cavities after a disc and under the ship bottom.
The book is written for researches, scientists, engineers, and students interested in problems of hydromechanics.

List of contents

Mathematical theory and numerical simulation of bubbly cavitating nozzle flows.- Controlled supercavitation formed by a ring type wing.- Supercavitation as the effective tool for water drag reduction.- Water entry of thin hydrofoils.- Hydrodynamic performance of 2-D shock-free supercavitating hydrofoils with a spoiler on the trailing edge.- Investigation of parameters of artificial cavity at closure on a cylindrical hull.- Two-dimensional theory of cavitation flows under the ship bottom.- Hydrodynamic characteristics of disk with a duct in supercavitation flow.- Gas flows within artificial cavities.- Generalized automodel problem of impingement of liquid wedge and solid wedge.- Dynamics of supercavitating bodies.- Experimental investigation of inertial motion of supercavitating models.
