NON LINEAR CALCULATION OF SUPERCAVITATING HYDROFOILS NEAR A FREE SURFACE

This report summarizes briefly the research carried out under the Contracts N00014-67-A-0031 and N00014-75-C-0430 on the calculation of supercavitating hydrofoils near a free surface. This work appears in six previous publications. The present report concludes this series of publications with a users list of instructions for the calculation of supercavitating hydrofoils of finite aspect ratio near gravity-free surface.
