With the purpose of improving the performance of water jet devices numericalanalysis of water jets issuing from asubmergednozzle is carried out by applying a two-phase mixture flow method. Unsteady flow of water jet accompanied by cavitation is calculated by solving a set of Reynolds Averaged NavierStokes equations and the intensity of cavitation is evaluated by the gas volume fraction based on an estimation of average bubbleradius varying with the local pressure.Cavitating and no-cavitationgwater jets are treated under different cavitation numbers. The results demonstrate thataring-like starting vortex is generatedat the head ofimpulsively injectedjet and a low-pressure region is formed at the center of the ringlike vortex.With developing of submerged jet shear vortexes are generated sequentially on the jet periphery and a sequence of shear vortexes shade downstream periodically.Under the effect of shear vortexes pressure varies alternatively on the jet periphery and thus cavitation takes place sequentiallyin the low-pressurearea ofvortex coresonce the cavitation number is decreased to a critical value.
