Flow Around a Plate at Nonzero Cavitation Numbers

This article discusses the issue of flow around a plate at nonzero cavitation numbers. A review is made of the difference of the cavitation numbers from zero even when flowing around the simplest outlines, which greatly complicates the mathematical analysis of the problem. The drag coefficient for the transverse flow around the plate is expressed by the same row according to the Ryabushinsky scheme. At low cavitation numbers, the Zhukovsky-Roshko scheme is considered. The formulas are given according to the Ryabushinsky scheme.
