The design of super-cavitating propellers takes advantage of the development of air cavities on the blades? surface to reduce drag and, ultimately, increase efficiency. The mechanism of flow modification induced by the development of a cavity on the prop...

In this paper, we conducted numerical simulations to investigate single and two-phase flows around marine propellers in open-water conditions at different Reynolds number regimes. The simulations were carried out using a homogeneous compressible two-phas...

In this study, the high-fidelity numerical methods are developed to investigate the tip vortex cavitation (TVC) inception and noise of underwater propellers, namely, Model-A and Model-B, which are designed to investigate the effects of sweep angle on cav...
