Abstract:
      On the assumption that the ideal compressible fluid motion is irrotational and steady,supercavitating closure with the Riabushinsky scheme.An integro-differential equation for the supercavitating flow past a slender cone type projectile traveling in water at subsonic speed is derived based on the potential flow theory of hydrodynamics and the slender body theory.A numerical discrete method for solution of the integro-differential equation is developed,various initial solutions of supercavity profile are proposed and the influence on results are analyzed.The process of computation is optimized and the initial cavity solution for the first iteration is simplified.Compressibility influence of flow field on characteristic parameter of supercaviting flow is analyzed,while the Mach number exceeds 0.3,more remarkable increasement of supercavity shape and pressure coefficient on projectile surface and drag coefficient of projectile will occur.The calculated results about characteristic parameter of supercaviting flow are compared with relative theoretical and experimental ones,and a good agreement exists.
