An advanced CFD model to study the effect of non-condensable gas on cavitation in positive displacement pumps
An advanced transient CFD model of a positive displacement reciprocating pump was created to study its behavior and performance in cavitating condition during the inlet stroke. The “full” cavitation model developed by Singhal et al. was utilized, and a sensitivity analysis test on two air mass fract...
