Abstract Self-excited oscillating jets (SOJ) are used in several practical applications. Their performances are significantly affected by structural parameters and the target distance. In this study, a geometric model of the SOJ nozzle accounting for multiple structural parameters is introduced, then the related cavitation performances and the optimal target distance are investigated using a Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) approach. Results are also provided about an experiment, which was conducted to validate the simulation results. By analyzing the evolution of the vapor volume fraction at the nozzle outlet, a discussion is presented about the effect of the aforementioned… More >
