Explore: Cavitation Flow

Cavitation in fluid mechanics and engineering normally is the phenomenon in which the static pressure of a liquid reduces to below the liquid's vapor pressure

A flow control valve regulates the flow or pressure of a fluid. Control valves normally respond to signals generated by independent devices such as flow

of the flow. The cavitation number serves as one of the primary methods for characterizing cavitation within a fluidic system. Low cavitation number indicates

entire underwater vessel. Cavitation is the internal boiling of a liquid caused by rapid flow around an object. Fluid flow around sharp corners requires

vulnerable to cavitation. If cavitation occurs, the drag coefficient of the impeller vanes will increase drastically—possibly stopping flow altogether—and

bubbles of vapor and the subsequent collapse of the bubbles causes cavitation. Cavitation is quite noisy and can be sufficiently violent to physically damage

Cavitation modelling is a type of computational fluid dynamic (CFD) that represents the flow of fluid during cavitation. It covers a wide range of applications

When these bubbles form rapidly by cavitation, the "snapping" sound can be used to measure the rate of cavitation within the plant . Plants[which?] do

for liquids increases the chances of cavitation. The Reynolds number has wide applications, ranging from liquid flow in a pipe to the passage of air over

remain in equilibrium with transpiration an event known as cavitation occurs. Cavitation is when the plant cannot supply its xylem with adequate water
