Two-dimensional test bodies of different shapes, such as a circular cylinder, wedge, and a Tulin-Burkhart hydrofoil were tested. Various types of cavitating flows, namely, transient cavities, steady-state cavities, and non-stationary cavities were covered. Special attention was given to the effect of ventilation on the intensity of cavitation noise. Effects of body size and the presence of a solid boundary were also investigated.en-USExperimental Studies of Cavitation Noise in a Free-Jet TunnelWorking Paper
