An active method to control cavitation in a centrifugal pump by obstacles

In this article, we proposed an active method of obstacle attached on the blade to control cavitation in centrifugal pump. The modified shear stress transport k-ω model with a local density correction for turbulent eddy viscosity combined with Kubota cavitation model was employed to simulate three-d...
