When a marine propeller rotates in partially submerged conditions, air is entrained from above the undisturbed free-surface, which is called the reference surface, and the ventilated air surrounds the propeller blades, causing thrust loss and excessive vibration, all of which seriously damage the durability of the propeller shaft system of a ship. In the present study, the entry of a propeller blade is simplified by the water entry problem of a sphere moving along a circular path at a constant speed. A high-speed camera was employed to capture the rapidly changing flow structures in detail. Above the reference surface, we focused on the free-surface disturbances, including splash and dome formation. Beneath the reference surface, the development and collapse of ventilated cavities, followed by the line-vortex cavity and cavity undulation, were observed. The ventilated cavity of the present study appears to be more elongated than those of the free-falling sphere's water entry experiments. Two parallel vortical structures appeared after the cavity pinch-off, and bubbles were entrained into these structures to form the line-vortex cavity. The sphere's drag was directly measured via the torque meter attached to the sphere's rotating axis. The relation between the measured drag and the flow around the sphere was identified.
