Prediction Method of Cavitation Jet Wave Attenuation Based on Five-Equation Two-Fluid Model

In this paper, the seven-equation two-fluid flow model is streamlined to a five-equation numerical calculation method. This method is applied to predict the wave attenuation of the cavitation jet. Compared with 9 different experimental schemes in two separate laboratories, it is found that the veloc...
