Abstrakt: Verification problems and numeric simulation of cavitation processes with the help of LOGOS computational fluid dynamics software are presented in this article. The Volume of Fluid method realized within LOGOS allowing numerical simulation of double-phase problems with a free surface is used for numeric simulation. Cavitation is resolved by updating the method with the account for interphase mass exchange; its condensation and evaporation parameters are calculated with the use of the Schnerr–Sauer and Zwart–Gerber–Belamri cavitation models. Numerical simulation results of most actual test problems considering turbulence and having reliable numerical data are presented, including simulations of flow around cylinders with flat and hemispherical end surfaces for various cavitation numbers. Numerical simulation results are presented for the process of rotation of a VP1304 screw propeller in the cavitational mode. Numerical experiments prove the operability of the implemented method.
