4. Conclusions
1. Introduction
Various methods have been setup to study cavitating flow, they mainly fall to:
1. Potential method with modifications
2. Multiphase CFD simulation
3. Experiment technique
1. Introduction
Flow near the cavity closure region is the most complicated in cavitating flow. Several closure models have been setup:
Riaboushinsky Model
Efros Model
Pressure Recovery Model
1. Introduction
The Efros closure form, which assumes there is a re-entrant jet in the cavity closure region, is frequently observed in experimental studies:
Wosnik (2003)
Our experiment results
1. Introduction
According to the previous investigations, the re-entrant jet can induce the instabilityinstability of cavitation. The unstable cavity results in the undetermined dynamic undetermined dynamic featurefeature, which is a main problem of supercavitating vehicle design.
Therefore, the characteristics of re-entrant jet for a supercavitating body should be studied in the following aspects:
1. Main feature of re-entrant jet in cavitating flow
2. The factors affecting the re-entrant jet
3. Ways to restrain the adverse effects
2. Experiment Setup
Experiment was conducted in the high speed water tunnel of NPU, using the ventilation method to obtain supercavity, a series of instruments to acquire desired data.
2.1 Experiment Scheme
The experiment configuration is mainly composed of the measure and control system, ventilation system and the image capture system.

2.2 High Speed Water Tunnel in NPU
The water tunnel is a recirculating, closed jet facility with pressure regulation and is capable of velocities in excess of 18m/s.
Working Section Size: Φ400×2000mm, three side observations
2.3 Test Models
We mainly conducted three kinds of experiments: Pressure in closure region measurement Effects of head shape and attack angle to re-entrant jet Re-entrant jet restraining
2.3 Test Models
Pressure in closure region measurement:• Obtain the pressure distribution in the re-entrant jet

2.3 Test Models
Effects to re-entrant jet:• Three model heads with different nose diameters• Same full model length• Adjust inflow angle

2.3 Test Models
Re-entrant jet restraining:• Two rings with different diameters• Arrange in the middle of test model

3. Results and Discussion
Through groups of experiments, we successfully got the pressure data, re-entrant jet images and the effect of re-entrant restraining method.

4. Conclusions
1. A pressure peak exists in the re-entrant jet formation area;
2. Strength of re-entrant jet becomes greater as σc increases. Cavity closure location also plays a role in deciding re-entrant jet influence to cavity;
3. Re-entrant jet can induce the instability of cavity in cavity length and shape, and the cycle time is indeterminate;
4. Re-entrant jet can only be fully prevented if the blocking ring fits well with local cavity, improper designed blocking ring may worsen the disturbance of re-entrant jet to cavity.
