Cfd simulation of cavitation over water turbine hydrofoils

Abstract

Turbiny wykorzystujące pływy morskie są coraz częściej wykorzystywane jako źródła czystej energii. Energię pływów morskich można uzyskać w podobny sposób jak w przypadku energii wiatrowej, ale turbiny wykorzystujące pływy morskie muszą spełnić znacznie bardziej rygorystyczne wymagania. Jednym z czynników mających wpływ na efektywność hydrodynamiczną turbin jest zjawisko kawitacji. Artykuł przedstawia wykorzystanie metod CFD do symulacji zjawiska kawitacji przy opływie typowych profili lotniczych.
