In the last decade much research works has been carried out in order to improve the
operation and speed of the underwater vehicles. In this study important supercavitation …

Pressure-equalizing film is a slice of air layer attached to vehicle exterior with nearly uniform
inside pressure, similar to ventilated cavity in composition; it is generated through exhaust …

This paper presents the simulation results of the acoustic field around an underwater
supercavitation vehicle under various operating conditions and analyzes the cavitation …

The ventilated air film covered by the surface of the underwater vehicle has an important
influence on its hydrodynamic characteristics. In this paper, the development characteristics …

The vertical water-entry behavior of bullet-shaped projectiles was experimentally and
theoretically studied. Particular attention was given to characterizing projectile dynamics, the …

Supercavitation is an effective drag reduction technology for high-speed underwater
vehicles. However, the evolution of supercavitating flow becomes more complex during …

In this paper, a numerical analysis is carried out to study the characteristics of
supercavitating flows and the drag of relatively simple two-dimensional and axisymmetric …

The effects of the gravity field and the free surface on the cavity shape and the drag are
investigated through a numerical analysis for the steady supercavitating flow past a simple …

The work presents opportunities of hydroballistic complex for studying the characteristics of
movement supercavitation model (SCM) on the length of waterway to 10 m. Gunfire of SCM …

The evolution of the cavity and the variation of the drag for an underwater body with control
fins are investigated through a numerical analysis of the steady cavitating turbulent flow. The …
