Abstract: | Cavity flow past a circular cylinder is considered accounting for the surface tension on the cavity boundary. The fluid is assumed to be inviscid and incompressible, and the flow is assumed to be irrotational. The solution is based on two derived governing expressions, which are the complex velocity and the derivative of the complex potential defined in an auxiliary parameter region. An integral equation in the velocity magnitude along the free surface is derived from the dynamic boundary condition. The Brillouin–Villat criterion is employed to determine the location of the point of flow separation. The cases of zero surface tension and zero cavitation number are obtained as limiting cases of the solution. Numerical results concerning the effects of surface tension and cavitation development on the cavity detachment, the drag force and the geometry of the free boundaries are presented over a wide range of the Weber and the cavitation numbers. |
