Modeling of Cavitating Flow through Waterjet Propulsors

<table>Experimental results [<a href="/journals/ijrm/2012/716392/#B4">20</a>]. Three different nozzle constrictions were set downstream of the waterjet. 100% nozzle, 90% nozzle, and 80% nozzle. Each of the nozzle settings resulted in a different single-phase <svg height="16.6" id="M62" style="vertical-align:-2.2932pt" version="1.1" viewbox="0 0 20.7875 16.6" width="20.7875" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">
