Perturbation solution to 3-D nonlinear supercavitating flow problems. (English) Zbl 0776.76014

A 3-D nonlinear problem of supercavitating flow past an axisymmetric body at a small angle of attack is investigated by means of the perturbation method and Fourier-cosine-expansion method. The first three order perturbation equations are derived in detail and solved numerically using the boundary integral equation method and iterative techniques. Computational results on the hydrodynamic characteristics and cavity shapes of each order are presented for nonaxisymmetric supercavitating flow past cones with various apex-angles at different cavitation numbers.
