Abstract
The present paper focuses on the correlation of cavitation instabilities in turbomachinery with steady cavity length, or a parameter sigma/(2*alpha). A linear stability analysis shows that various types of cavitation instabilities start to occur when the steady cavity length becomes larger than 65% of the blade spacing. Experimental evidence for this will be reviewed. If we apply this rule in a cross flow plane, the effects of leading edge sweep to suppress cavitation instabilities can be reasonably explained by using a corrected parameter in cross flow. This will also be addressed.
