Chordwise micro-jet placement reveals a trade-off between mean hydrodynamic performance and unsteady loading under cloud cavitation
Prescribed tangential micro-jet injection can modify cloud-cavitation dynamics, but the chordwise location that improves mean hydrodynamic performance may differ from the location that minimizes unsteady loading. This study compares five injection locations (x/c = 0.15, 0.30, 0.45, 0.60, and 0.70) on a Clark-Y hydrofoi...
