Computational fluid dynamics prediction of marine propeller cavitation including solution verification
This paper analyses the effect of grid refinement on computational fluid dynamics simulations of cavitating propeller flow. Refinement is made both globally, using geometrically similar grids, and locally, by applying adaptive grid refinement. The test case is the E779A propeller operating in uniform inflow conditions in a cavitation tunnel. This allows more computationally efficient steady simulations
