Accuracy Improvement for Propeller Cavitation Noise Prediction Using UDF
Abstract: Recently, there has been an increase in demand for propulsion systems with higher hydrodynamic performance and lower underwater-radiated noise, as environmental issues are gaining more attention in addition to the traditional military necessity. It is important to reduce cavitation noise when designing propellers of the ships, especially for oceanographic research vessels because they use acoustic instruments and cavitation noise can interfere with their operation. It is well known that, when …
