Title | Vapor Cavity Collapse Downstream from Orifice Plates |
Creator | Smith, Nathan Q. Johnson, Michael C. Barfuss, Steve L. |
Description | Cavitation is the rapid vaporization and condensation of a liquid and was a focus of study for years because of its negative impacts on hydraulic systems including noise, vibration, erosion damage, pressure fluctuations, and loss of efficiency. Supercavitation is described as a state of cavitation where the vapor cavity extends to many diameters downstream of the equipment that is causing the cavitation and terminates in abrupt vapor cavity collapse. Although an important topic, the... |
