A New Algorithm for DNS Simulations of Cavitating Flows using Homogeneous Mixture Approach

摘要

A new algorithm for DNS simulations of cavitating flows is being developed. The algorithm is based on a form of Kim and Moin projection method. Fast parallel computations are obtained through the use of influence matrix technique and eigendecomposition. The algorithm aims at performing fast DNS simulations of cavitating flows with homogeneous mixture approach where the cavitation models' source term can be either based on bubble dynamics or purely empirical.
