ABSTRACT
The resu l t s of force tes t s on the NACA bbl -0 12 hydrofoil in non-
cavitating and cavitating two-dimensional flow a r e presented. The
r e su l t s of wind tunnel tes t s on this profile a r e included for comparison
with the resu l t s of the noncavitating water tunnel experiments. The non-
cavitating experiments were made a t Reynolds numbers f rom 0.89 to 6 1.65 x 10 and the cavitation experiments a t Reynolds numbers of 0.89
6 and 1.18 x 10 .
INTRODUCTION
Two-dimensional hydrodynamic data a r e now available for a
number of hydrofoil shapes. The force coefficients in noncavitating and
cavitating flow have been obtained on simple geometrical shapes such a s
wedges, f lat plates and c i rcu lar a r c hydrofoils, a s well a s conventional
cambered airfoi l shapes. Symmetr ical hydrofoil shapes, such a s those
descr ibed in this report , a r e important both for lifting surfaces and for
nonlifting support s t ru t s and fairings. The requirements for support
s t ru ts , such a s low drag, low cr i t ical cavitation number, and high
strength a r e much the same as for lifting hydrofoils.
The NACA 661-012 hydrofoil was selected a s a representative ex-
ample of a c l a s s of a irfoi l shapes which would be suitable for symmetr i -
c a l hydrofoil design applications where sl.-ength is important. The
NACA 6bl -012 hydrofoil has a thickness to chord rat io of 0. 12 with a
c r i t ica l cavitation .index of approximately 0. 35 a t a n angle of attack of
zero degree, F o r applications where cavitation resis tance is a more
important consideration, a thinner hydrofoil section would be selected.
In addition, this hydrofoil shape was selected to be tested in the
High Speed Water Tunnel a t the Hydrodynamics Laboratory and in the
water tunnel a t the Iowa Institute of Hydraulic Resea rch in o r d e r that
the r e su l t s obtained in the two facil i t ies could be compared.
APPARATUS AND TESTS
Hydrofoil
The hydrofoil model has a 3,30-in. chord and a 2.90-in. span.
The model was made of s ta inless steel. The NACA 661 -0 12 hydrofoil
i s a symmet r i ca l profile with a maximum thickness of 12 percent of the
chord. Ordinates of the hydrofoil a r e given in Table I and a photograph
of the model in Fig. 1.
Water Tunnel and T e s t Procedure
The hydrofoil model was tes ted in the two-dimensional working
sect ion of the High Speed Water Tunnel. The model was mounted on a
5. 0 -in, d i ame te r c i r cu l a r disk a t tached to the force balance spindle and
s e t flush in the working section wall. The re was a na r row gap of ap -
proximately 0.002 in. between the f r e e end of the model and the working
sect ion wall. Detai ls of the tes t setup, fo rce balance, tes t procedure ,
and data reduction methods a r e given in Refs. 1 and 2.
T e s t s
The section lift, d rag , and quar te r -chord pitching moment were
m e a s u r e d for noncavitating flow a t wate r velocit ies of 3 0 , 40, 50 and 60 6
fps , which gave Reynolds numbers f r o m 0.89 x lo6 to 1.65 x 10 . Lift,
drag, and qua r t e r - cho rd pitching moment were measu red for cavitating
flow a t a velocity of 40 fps for hydrofoil a t tack angles f r o m ze ro to 7
deg rees and a t 30 fps for angles of at tack g rea t e r than 7 degrees . Be-
cause the hydrofoil i s symmetr ica l , the cavitating force runs were made
o r ~ l y a t positive a t tack angles. In each cavitation force run the angle of
a t tack of the model and the velocity were held constant and the cavitation
number var ied f r o m noncavitating flow to full cavity flow. Photographs
were taken of the cavitat ing hydrofoil a t each tes t point.

A number of correct ions were applied to the measured data. The
ta re forces on the spindle disk were measured by mounting the hydro-
foil f rom the opposite wall with a small gap between the end of the
hydrofoil and the spindle disk. The force runs were repeated with this
setup and the fo rces measured on the mounting disk alone. The lift and
pitching moment disk ta re correct ions were negligible, hence only the
d r a g cor rec t ion was applied to the data. The data for fully wetted flow
were co r r ec t ed for tunnel interference effects. The methods of data
cor rec t ion a r e descr ibed in deta i l in Ref. 1.

for a Reynolds number of 3.0 x 10 . There a r e considerable
differences in Fig . 2 between the water tunnel and the wind tunnel r e - su l t s both in the slope of the lift coefficient curve and in the maximum
lift coefficient. The lift coefficient, however, can easi ly change by
this amount over a range of Reynolds numbers f r o m one to three million.
Data were not available for the NACA 661 -0 12 profile for Reynolds num- 6
b e r s l e s s than 3.0 x 10 ; however, t es t s of a s imi l a r symmet r i ca l 4 NACA 641 -0 12 a i r foi l made a t Reynolds numbers f r o m 0 . 7 to

tunnel r e s u l t s of Fig . 2. The NACA 641-012 ai r foi l has a thickness of
12 percen t of the chord and a profile very s imi l a r to that of the NACA
661 -01 2 profile except that the maximum thickness o c c u r s a t approxi-

F ig . 2. The pitching moment coefficient does not change appreciably
with Reynolds number . The curve of pitching moment coefficient f r o m 3 the wind tunnel t e s t s is quite different f r o m that obtained in the wate r
tunnel exper iments . Since the hydrofoil is symmetr ica l , i t s e e m s
reasonable that the fo rce and moment coefficient cu rves should be s y m -
m e t r i c a l about z e r o degree a t tack angle. The pitching moment
coefficients about the quarter - chord point obtained in the water tunnel
tes t s a r e symmetr ical about zero degree and very nearly zero for
angles of attack up to stall.
Figure 3 i s a polar diagram showing lift and drag coefficients for
noncavitating flow. At large attack angles the drag coefficient f rom the
water tunnel tests increases rapidly due to the s tal l occurr ing a t
smal le r attack angles than for the higher Reynolds number wind tunnel
tests. In the low drag range, for lift coefficients less than t 0. 3
corresponding to angle of attack of l e s s than f 3 degrees, the water
tunnel resu l t s , though somewhat higher due to smal le r Reynolds num-
be r s , a r e in good agreement with the wind tunnel resul ts .
The water tunnel resul ts show a slight increase in drag coeffi-
cient with increasing Reynolds number, indicating that a laminar boundary
layer may have existed over a considerable portion of the hydrofoil. The
NACA 66 -012 profile has i ts minimum pressure coefficient occurr ing 1 a t the 60 percent chord point a t zero degree attack angle. At smal l
attack angles the large region of decreasing pressure over the forward
par t of the profile would tend to delay laminar turbulent boundary layer
transition and would cause an increase in d rag coefficient with Reynolds
number due to the laminar turbulent boundary layer transition point
moving forward on the profile a s the velocity is increased.
Cavitating Flow
Lift, drag, and quarter - chord pitching moment were measured for
the NACA 661 - 0 12 hydrofoil for a range of cavitation numbers f rom
fully wetted to full cavity flow a t angles of attack of 0 to 10 degrees.
The tes t s were made a t a tunnel velocity of 40 fps for angles of attack
up to 7 degrees and a t 30 fps for attack angles grea ter than 7 degrees.
Because the hydrofoil i s symmetrical, the data a r e presented only for
positive attack angles. No tunnel interference correct ions have been
applied to the data f rom the cavitation force runs. The cavitation num-
ber in all figures i s based on the vapor pressure of water.

fo r noncavitating flow. F o r angles of attack grea ter than 3 degrees
there i s an increase in lift smal l amounts of cavitation on the hydrofoil.
The cavitation diagram, Fig. 5, shows the extent of cavitation on the
hydrofoil a s a function of angle of attack and cavitation number. At
angles of attack up to 3 degrees, the cavitation first appears a t approxi-
mately the 65 percent chord point, as shown by the lower, broken line.
At angles of attack grea ter than 3 degrees, cavitation began near the
leading edge of the hydrofoil. In the region between three and four
degrees attack angle, the position of the cavitation on the hydrofoil
became unstable and incipient cavitation might occur either at the
leading edge o r a t the 60 percent chord point, After cavitation had been
established on the hydrofoil a t these attack angles, i t would often
fluctuate between the leading edge and the 60 percent chord point o r
the cavitation would separate into long thin individual cavities attached
a t the leading edge. F igure 6 shows examples of the three patterns of
cavitation on the NACA 6 b l -0 12 hydrofoil a t a n angle of attack of 3
degrees. In Fig. 6a there is a continuous cavity attached a t the lead-
ing edge of the hydrofoil. As the cavitation number is reduced, Figs .
6b and 6c, the cavity spl i ts into a number of long individual cavities
separated by portions of fully wetted flow. At s t i l l lower cavitation
numbers the cavitation disappears f rom the leading edge and begins
on the after portion of the hydrofoil, Fig. 6d, e , and f . At the attack
angles where the position of the cavitation on the hydrofoil is not
stable, the presence of the tunnel walls causes the cavitation to remain
attached near the leading edge of the hydrofoil a t the walls.
The dashed lines in Fig. 5, noted a s X1 = 0.25 c to 1.00 c show
the extent of the cavitation on the upper surface of the hydrofoil. At
X I = 1.00 c the downstream end, o r closure, of the cavity just extends
to the trail ing edge of the model. The region to the left of the
X I = 1.00 c line gives the cavitation number for which the hydrofoil i s
in full cavity flow with the cavity extending downstream f r o m the hydro-
foil.
Cavitation occurred on the lower, p res su re surface of the hydro-
foils for angles of attack up to 8 degrees. The cavitation number a t
which the cavitation begins on the lower surface i s indicated in Fig. 5.
At angles of attack grea ter than 3 degrees, cavitation did not being on
the lower surface until a long, full cavity covered the entire upper s u r -
face.
Figure 7 shows lift coefficient a s a function of cavitation number
a t constant angle of attack. Each curve in Fig. 7 represents the resul ts
of one test run, and the data points a r e the measured values of the lift
coefficient. Figure 4 is a c ross plot of Fig. 7. The dashed line in Fig.
7 shows the cavitation number for incipient cavitation on the upper sur-
face. As noted in Fig. 4, there i s an increase in lift coefficient a t
constant angle of attack when cavitation f i r s t begins near the leading edge
of the hydrofoil. F o r small angles of attack where the cavitation begins
nearly a t the mid-chord point, the lift coefficient decreases a s soon a s
the hydrofoil begins to cavitate.
Figure 8 shows drag coefficient a s a function of cavitation number
a t constant angle of attack. Each curve in Fig. 8 i s for the same test
run a s the data for the corresponding angle of attack in Fig. 7. The drag
coefficient increases a s soon a s cavitation begins on the hydrofoil,

f rom many test runs in which the velocity and angle of attack were held
constant and the cavitation number varied from noncavitating to fully
cavitating flow. The drag coefficient has been plotted to a scale ten
times that of the lift coefficient in Fig. 9.

noted that the moment coefficient in Fig. 10 has been plotted to a much
expanded scale compared with that for noncavitating flow, Fig. 2, in
order to show the changes more clearly. F o r noncavitating flow with

tion. When cavitation begins there i s a rapid decrease in lift/drag rat io
even though Figs. 4 and 7 show an increase in lift with sma l l amounts of
cavitation a t angles of attack grea ter than 3 degrees. As cavitation be-
gins, the increase in drag i s proportionately grea ter than the increase
in lift. As the cavitation number i s reduced to give a large cavity on
the hydrofoil, the drag coefficient reaches a maximum and then de-
c reases . The lift coefficient, however, decreases rapidly with cavita-
tion number and the reduction in drag coefficient mere ly causes a reduc-
tion in the slope of the lift/drag ratio curves.
