Abstract

Background on thermal effects on cavitation and numerical framework. Validation of numerical model for cryogens in CRUNCH CFD(R). Comparison with subscale test data hord (1973). Simulations of liquid hydrogen inducer at various flow coefficients. 120% of design, Design, and 80% of Design flow rate. Detailed comparison of flow profiles. Sensitivity of backflow to turbulent viscosity noted. Conclusion
