The paper presents the re-entrant jet analysis of cavitating turbulent flow on a hydrofoil. Analysis was performed by OpenFOAM code. A mixture assumption and a finite rate mass transfer model were introduced. The finite volume method is used to solve the governing equations of the mixture model and the pressure-velocity coupling is handled via a Pressure Implicit with Splitting of Operators (PISO) procedure. The result of numerical simulation clearly explained the mechanism of re-entrant jet and quasi-periodic law of cavitating flow on a hydrofoil.
