EXPERIMENTAL AND NUMERICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF LEADING EDGE CAVITATION

Créé le : 27/09/2010 - Mis à jour le : 15/11/2012

In order to study the leading edge cavitation of the impeller of a single stage helico-centrifugal pump, a specific impeller with transparent shroud and a special casing with windows have been used as experimental test rig. The leading edge cavitation has been experimentally observed on the both sides of the impeller and the head drop measured for different operating conditions...
