Cavity Flow Pattern Design for Supercaviting Torpedo

摘要

The flow pattern design of supercaviting torpedo,like the shape design of conventional bedewed torpedo,occupies an important position in torpedo system design.In this paper,the flow pattern design issues were studied systematically.A set of design criteria and main design requirements were proposed,and the design method and procedure were established.Moreover,the determination method of necessary parameters of cavitator and ventilated system for desired cavity flow pattern was given.Considered the speed and pressure disturbances in the torpedo navigation,a concept named margin design was proposed to solve the supercavitation deformation and instability caused by the disturbances.
