Abstract
The liquid weight has a significant effect on the detached cavitation flow which is artificially created by gas injection behind an obstacle (probe) in a liquid stream [1], This paper considers two-dimensional cavitation flow created behind a projection on the lower surface of an infinite horizontal wall.
1. The problem of the cavitational flow about a plate which forms a small angle α with a wall is solved. The liquid is assumed to have weight and to be ideal and incompressible, and its motion is irrotational. The length L of the cavity is considerably greater than the length of the projection. The Ryabushinskii scheme is used.
