Abstract
Cavitation and bubble dynamics are important topics
of fluid mechanics. Generally, cavitation phenomenon
plays a negative role in the hydraulic machineries (e.g.
hydroturbines, pumps, space engines, and marine propellers)
through various kinds of mechanisms. First, the
cavitation could cause serious damage on the surfaces
of the materials (e.g. patterned erosions with pits) during
its final collapse near the boundary. Second, flow
inside/outside the machines will be further deteriorated
by the vortices generated by the cavitating flows. Third,
significant unstable flow could persist for a long time
due to the generation of cavitation. As a result, both
the efficiency and stable operation of the machines will
be challenged by the cavitation.
