A Large Eddy Simulation (LES) approachbased on the weakly compressible hydrodynamic equation with a single-plase fluid model for the cavitation flow has been de-veloped and employed in simulating 3-D unsteady viscous flowthrough an orifice type spillwy tunnel. The finite volume ap-proach in space and the predictor-corrector method in timehave been used to the numerical discretization, and the "Lawof wall" is applied at the solid boundary. The velocity, pres-sure fields and the cavitation phenomenon are obtained, thecomputational results show that 3-D LES approach can givemore realistic flow field prediction of the orifice type spillwaytunnel.
