Introduction
Present report is concerned with the problem of steady plane flow
of a cavitating hydrofoil, within the frame of the linearized theory.
The aim of this study is the development of a. theory which connects the gap between the theories of partially cavitated and fully cavitated
flows.
When we treat a cavity flow as perfect fluid flow, hypothetical
images are needed for various cavitation numbers. In this theory, the idea of relaxing the closure condition of a cavity is introduced. If the measured cavity-length is .introduced as a parameter, one finds better experimental agreement for lift. The th.eory is semiempirical and con-tains constants or functions to be determined by extensive experiments.
It is 'desirablé to obtain analytical prediction for cavity flow of a hydrofoil, and it may be possible, if experiments are performed
system-atically. It is hoped that the present analysis may shed some light on
future development of the theoretical prediction on a hydrofoil best fitted for cavity flow in characteristics.
1. Velocity Potential
A hydrofoil is placed in the uniform flow of a perfect fluid filling an infinite space. The stream ve'ocity is taken to be V. A' sketch of
z
the cavitating hydrofoil is shown in Fig. 1. In linearized theory, the analysis is simplified by fulfilling the surface boundary condition on the x-axis rather than on an approximate neighboring shape.
So, the velocity potential is given by
(Ï)(x, z)
5'2t1 xx'
dx'22rV li z
+
1 51 dçt' In {(xx')2--z2)dx'2r 110r11' dx
In these approximations, we will require that the velocity never differs too much from the free-stream velocity and that the slope of the body must be small. Therefore, we may neglect squares and higher powers of small quantities Subsequently, we obtain the linearized relation be-tween the velocity potential and the fluid pressure
from Euler's equation of motion.
2. Boundary Condition
If the median plane of the hydrofoil makes a negative angleawith
the free-stream direction, the cavity should extend along a portion of
the upper side of the x-axis. The case that the cavity extends along all portions of the suction side is teimed fully cavitated flow. So the
case that the cavity extends along a part of the suction side of the
hydrofoil may be called partially cavitated flow.
The linearized boundary condition may be stated as follows:
The velocity vector on the hydrofoil surface is parallel to the
sur-face. That is

That is (2.2)4
(1.1) satisfies the above coñditiòn (23).
In order to hold a smooth juncture between the cavity wall and
the hydrofoil surface, the cavity should be forired so that the following
relationship is fulfilled.

dx x=11'
(2.4)
The condition of smooth flow at the. trailing edge is
(pp-)I=2=O-
(2.5)The author adopts a. partly open, linearized cavity model which was introduced by A. G. Fabula [11°. That is
(2.6) The open width O is determined empirically.
To solve the mixed boundary value problem, we must ireat two integral equations simultaneously. The key of the method is to convert the two equations into one equation by elithinati.ng an unknown func-tion among two unknown fuñcfunc-tions.
3. Integral Equation
In this section, we will derive an integral equation for the solution of the bouñdary-value problem given in the above section.
Using (1.1) and (1.2), we have the following expressions

For the case of the fully cavitated flow, (3.13) becomes

In órder to get the solution of the boundary value problem, we
must solve two integral equations (3.7) and (3.17) of two unkflowñ
func-tions and dö/clx' simultaneously Fortunately, the analytical solution
of the integral equation Qf the same type with (3.17) is known in the field of thin-airfoil theory (see Appendix II).
When we introduce the juncture condition (2.4), it is written
If we insert the above result in (3.2) in the place of dçû/dx, two integral equations (3.7) and (4.17) are converted iñto an integral equation of .
The clear expression will be shown in the following section.,
(ii) Partially cavitated flow (l1=lÇ, l<l,)
In the case of the partially cavitated flow, it is rather convenient to the analysis to derive an integral equation of dö/dx than , because
is not continuous at the rear end of the cavity.

4. Cavity Shape
Substituting (3.15) in (3.19), we get the expression of the cavity
shape. To perform the integrations, we use Poincaré-Bertrand's formula

We can also get the lower boundary z_ of the cavity by integrat-ing (4.4) with respect to x. In such a case the second term and down-(4.2)

5. The Solutions of the Integral Equations
We can coñvert the integral equations in the same type as the
in-tegral equatiòn of a thin airfoil. So we readily get the solutions by applying the results of the thin airfoil theory t the integral equations.

(5.7)
We can evaluate the cavity thickness by (5.7), if the relation between the cavity length and the cavitation number is determined.
Substitut-ing the solution (5.7) in dz/dx in (3.20), we get the lift distribution on the hydrofoil.
6. Closure ConditionI
Referring (5.4) and (5.7), we see that the hydrofoil characteristics depend only upon the relation between the cavity length and the cavita-tion number which is determined by the closure condicavita-tion, except for the foilshape.
Experience seems to indicate that satisfactory results will not be expected from only one kind of cavity models in the whole range of cavitation number. Therefore, it would be better that we pick up the cavity model or the closure condition which contains some empirical

where the upper range of the integral 12 or l denotes 12

l for l2<l.
Inserting (3.7) in (7.2) in the place of du/dx and (3.10) in (7.2) in the place of , we have

The integrants of (7.3) being antisymmetric with respect to x and x', the first and second terms of right-hand side of (7.3) vanish, if and d/dx have not singularities in the range 11<x<12 .or l.
According to the thin airfoil theory, it is verified that the first
term vanishes, in spite of the fact that has a singularity at a leading edge in general. The second term does not vanish, because d/dx has
a singularity at the end of the cavity. The improper integral can be performed by means of the similar process to the thin airfoil theory.
When we write
dô/dx=A0(e)/ ' 1 +A(e)
(7.4)where e=(xx)/c0, x=(l+l)/2, the final expression of the drag
coeffi-cient is written in the form
CD = irA(1)c0/ C + iö2/c (7.5)
(see Appendix III).

(9.11)We can get the similar expressions of dz_/dz and dz/dx in a similar way as above.
Using the Tables I and II shown in the Appendix I, we can easily
calculate the above expressions.
If m is not a small integer, the above expressions are not suitable for the numerical calculation. The expression (9.3) is needed for this case and, for example, the lift coefficient is expressed in the form

it follows from the above expressions that

10. Closure ConditionII
Since flows with cavities of finite length do not exist in the frame
of inviscid flow theory, several flow models have been proposed in an attempt to represent accurately the physical flow As they have the same boundary conditions, except for the closure condition, the various theories produce similar results, regardless of the model used. However
experimental results seem to indicate that the use of a sort of model is not physically justifiable in the whole range of cavitation number.
Espe-cially, the flow model theories seem to break down for cavity lengths
near to foil chords. It rather seems to be realistic and suitable to
aid the designer that we develop the theory of which closure conditions
are selected as a function of the cavitation number to agree with
ex-perimental data.
In this paper, the author proposes to select the cavity open width
o2 to agree with experimental data.
For the case of a flat plate, we have
a 1 %'l+L2+1 (10.1)

%/1+P-1
21( .J1+P+1)_4/ir(1+I2)ö* for c0/c<l, from (6.2) and (6.4), where ò*=_52/(ca).
If we put
=--F1(c0/c). [2 +
and insert it in (10.1) and (10.2), we get
(10.2) (10.3) 411+L2+1
-c 2L( 1+L2 l)_L2F1{2+kF2/(1+L*)) for c0/c>1 (10.4) /1+I2_1 u 21( ,./1+I2 +i)_(1+12)F1{2+kF2I(1+L*)} for c0/c<1 (10.5)where
F1(1)=1, F2(1)=1,
L*= /(i2l1)/jll2l
and F1, F2 and k denote empirical factors. So we have
a i
;;:- C0/C=1= 2k
k is determined by contrasting (10.6) with reliable experimental data.

are plotted as a function of a/(ao a), in which a0 is the angle of attack

If F1 and F2 take the values indicated in Fig. 4 and ktakes 8, the equations (10.4) and (10.5) agree with the experimental
results, and then lifta curve agrees with experimental information
in outline as shown in Fig. 3. ö which is evaluated by using the values
of F1 and F2 indicated in Fig. 5 is shown in Fig. 4.
As the wake. thickness will correspond to instability of cavitation, the estimation of wake width will be important in real problem of

proved, through the recursions formulas, that m/(L) and T3(L) tend
to 1/L"2 as L-oc.
If we insert
ap
in (10.1) and (10.2) in the place of a, we cancarry out the evaluation for a hydrofoil with camber and thickness by the same way with the case of a flat plate.
In Fig. 6 we show a result of the evaluation with respect to a
hydrofoil expressed by the equations
Co/C
0.05 0.10 0.15
Fig. 6
'/c=0.04(0.3
l'/c=0.04(1-2).
In the calculation it is assumed that ô2=0. This hydrofoil is similar to the profile which was tested by Meijer [61. The theoretical results agree tation. The evaluated value of ô2 will be useful for the estimation of the wake width of real flow.
When the hydrofoils have camber and thickness, we may write, referring to (9.7) and (9.18) or (9.19),
a=-2aL---( 4/l+L2l)+2Lp(L),
for c0/c>1 (11.1)24
with experimental data in outline, except for cavity lengths near to
foil chord.
In order to know the tendency of ô2, much more experiments are
wanted.
12. Other Partially Cavitated Flow (l<1)
In this section we treat the cavity flow problem that the cavitation occurs at an intermediate position of a chord. In these cases we know three kinds as shown in Fig. 7 (a), (b), (e).
we have, from (5.6)

We omit the detail descriptions regarding the case (c), because the problem can be solved by the same way with the fully cavitated flow, if we regard the length iT as the chord.
In the following analysis, it is assumed that the location of the
separation point l is already known.

This is the same type with the equation (5.6). So the problem can be solved by the same way with the partially cavitated flow shown in the
preceding sections.
In order to simplify the calculation of the case that the cavitation occurs from the intermediate point of the chord; tables of new charac-teristic functions must be constructed.
The actual location of the separation point depends on several physi-. cal parameters. However, in order to predict the location, we may
adopt the rather simple condition that the pressure must be a minimum in the foil-cavity-wake region. As the minimum pressure generally oc-curs at the leading edge in the linearized theory, some contrivance must be done for the prediction of the separation point. The support of
non-linear theory will be required for the weak point of the non-linearized theory, after all.

recursions formulas shown in the following. A recursions formula

(1.12) is readily derived from (1.1). When the values of ?n$° and m are given, we can calculate m for j> 1 by the use of (1.12).Let us derive the recursions formulas for in and If we

Eliminating m' and m' from the equations (1.13), (1.15) and the
equation in which k+1 is inserted in the place of k, we get the

Appendix III
The Singular Behavior Near the Rear End of a Cavity and the Drag Integral
The drag integral (7.3) contains two repeated integrals of the form

where the function f(x) has a 1/ singularity with d from an end
(for example ¿2) of the range. If the interval (l2, ¿2) is excluded, the repeated integration (111.1) may be considered to be a double integral, since the function f(x) is regular over the range of integration. The
double integral for this region must be zero because of the antisym-metric character of the integral. It remains then to consider the
ex-cuded range, namely
11_L

Consequently, we see from above result that the second term of the drag integral (7.3) contributes to drag.
36
The singular behavior of the first term of (7.3) near the leading
edge is easi]y seen to be related to the effect of the leadingedge sin-gularity on drag.
The amount of drag derived from the first term by the previous integration is to be removed by the introduction of leading-edge suction as shown in thin airfoil theory [10].
