Cavitation test

...This is a test carried out when designing ice-breaking cargo ships, ice-breaking tankers, ice-sea structures, etc. (3) Cavitation test Cavitation, which has harmful effects such as damage to the propeller blades and vibration of the hull, often occurs in the propellers of large ships. In a cavitation test, the propeller is rotated in a circulating water tank (cavitation tank), and the occurrence of cavitation is observed and the blade surface pressure is measured. This test is intended to develop a propeller shape that is not adversely affected by cavitation, and to conduct basic research on the occurrence and damage of cavitation. ...
