In this study high‐velocity cavitating flows in injector nozzles are calculated using a modified Volume‐of‐Fluid method coupled with bubble dynamics. The calculations show that cavitation in injector nozzles may be unsteady and the interaction between the internal and external flow should be taken into account.
