Numerical and Experimental Investigation of Water and Cryogenic Cavitating Flows

The accuracy of the numerical simulation in the prediction of cavitation in cryogenic fluids is of critical importance for the efficient design and performance of turbopumps in rocket propulsion systems. One of the main challenges remains the efficiency in modeling the physics, handling the multisca...
