Embodiment

[0090] As shown in Figure 5(a), Figure 5(b), Figure 5(c) and Figure 5(d), a numerical prediction method for underwater propeller tip vortex cavitation, the specific implementation method includes the following steps:

[0091] Step 1: Use professional modeling software to establish a three-dimensional geometric model of the propeller, and import it into the meshing software.

[0092] In the second step, three alternative meshes are established in the meshing software and imported into the calculation program.

[0093] The computational domains of the three alternative grids are the same. According to the characteristics of the flow field around the propeller, a cylindrical computational domain is established, such as figure 1As shown, the velocity inflow boundary is 1.5D from the center of the propeller, D is the diameter of the propeller, the distance from the downstream pressure outlet boundary is 5D, and the distance from the center of the propeller to the side periphery is ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for forecasting numerical value of cavitation of an underwater propeller tip vortex and belongs to the field of optimized design of propellers. The method includes steps of (a) determining a basic grid; (b) determining a precision grid; (c) determining an optimal grid; (d) forecasting the cavitation of the underwater propeller tip vortex under the required working condition by means of the optimal grid.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of propeller optimization design, in particular to a numerical prediction method for underwater propeller tip vortex cavitation. Background technique [0002] Propeller cavitation not only reduces propeller performance, produces cavitation erosion, and causes hull vibration, but also produces cavitation noise sufficient to expose itself. As modern ships have higher and higher requirements for load and speed, propeller cavitation is unavoidable. The tip vortex cavitation is often the earliest cavitation in the propeller, and the accurate prediction of its phenomenon can provide an important basis for the judgment of the initial cavitation. The numerical prediction of tip vortex cavitation is also one of the most difficult to achieve. Numerically capturing tip vortex cavitation and obtaining comprehensive cavitation flow field information including pressure, velocity, and flow field structure of the surrounding flow f...
