| Abstract | The initial cavitation model, originally reported in 2000, has been successfully implemented within several CFD codes (CFD-ACE+, Fluent, ...) and applied throughout a variety of industrial applications. The objective of this study was to extend this model into cryogenic fluids and demonstrate its capability to simulate cryogenic propellant fed turbo pumps associated with liquid rocket engines. In the modeling approach described here the energy equation was modified to include the phase change effects due to cavitation. This necessitated variable physical properties, including vapor pressure, liquid density, vapor density, thermal conductivity, specific heat, fluid viscosity, surface tension, and evaporation heat for the cryogenic fluids. These properties were extracted from NIST tables which were implemented into the CFD-ACE+ computer code. Customized solution algorithm treatments were necessary to ensure robust numerical convergence as a result of the large variations in vapor pressure with respect to temperature typically present in cryogenic fluid pumping and diffusion phenomena. The Hord’s experiment was chosen for the validation as a result of its complete and comprehensive measurement set availability in the open literature. The calculated pressure and temperature profiles along a hydro foil, at different flow conditions for both nitrogen and hydrogen fluids, were compared with experimental measurements. Without any modification to the empirical constants, originally calibrated with water, the predicted results matched remarkably well with the experimental data. This effort has established a new standard compared to previous predictions for liquid nitrogen. For liquid hydrogen flows a significant improvement in the temperature recovery region compared to previous predictions is described and provides for an excellent baseline effort to improve upon. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
