Cardiovascular cavitation

Medical Engineering & Physics, 2009
This article reviews the role of cavitation in the therapeutic applications of ultrasound and laser surgery, and the cavitation effects in mechanical heart valves. Whenever laser pulses are used to ablate or disrupt tissue in a liquid environment, cavitation bubbles are produced which interact with the tissue. The interaction between cavitation bubbles

Cavitation and Cavitation Erosion

2014
In this chapter, an introduction to cavitation and cavitation erosion is presented. Cavitation involves the development of various types of vapor structures (such as attached cavities, travelling bubbles, vortical cavities, bubble clouds) in liquid flow due to a drop in the local pressure below a critical value usually close to the vapor pressure ...

Cavitation Bioeffects

Critical Reviews™ in Biomedical Engineering, 2006
Acoustic cavitation takes place when tiny gas bubbles oscillate, grow, and collapse in liquid under the influence of ultrasonic field. This study reviews cavitation bioeffects that are found both in vivo and in vitro when exposed to either low- or high-power acoustics.

Control of unsteady partial cavitation and cloud cavitation in marine engineering and hydraulic systems

, 2020
Cavitation is a process of liquid evaporation, bubble or vapor sheet formation, and further collapse of vapor structures, which plays a destructive role in many industrial applications.

Coccidioidal pulmonary cavitation

The American Journal of Medicine, 1958
Abstract 1.1. Seventy-seven cases of coccidioidal pulmonary cavitation have been summarized. 2.2. Cavitation is found in about 1 to 3 per cent of hospitalized patients with coccidioidomycosis, or about 0.1 per cent of all patients with this disease. 3.3.

Cavitation nuclei and cavitation noise

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1988
Present understanding of the influence of nuclei on the onset of cavitation and the generation of radiated cavitation noise is reviewed. It is now generally accepted that the formation of cavities in a liquid at only moderate negative pressures requires the presence of nuclei in the liquid; the experiments of Greenspan and Tschiegg, among others, leave

Cavitation-Vortex-Pressure Fluctuation Interaction in a Centrifugal Pump Using Bubble Rotation Modified Cavitation Model Under Partial Load

, 2020
Cavitation is a complicated phenomenon in the centrifugal pump. In this work, the improved unsteady calculation model based on bubble-rotation-based Zwart–Gerber–Belamri (BRZGB) cavitation model is used to investigate the cavitation-vortex-pressure ...

Cavitation

1997
Abstract ‘Cavitation is a most unpleasant hydrodynamic phenomenon, whose harmful effects are both widespread and obvious, and seriously handicap many areas of science and engineering. Conversely, its basic nature has long been veiled in mystery and only recently is it beginning to be understood’ wrote Knapp et al. (197GB).

Influence of water quality on the tip vortex cavitation inception

The Physics of Fluids, 2019
Tip vortex cavitation (TVC) is an important type of cavitation. There is an urgent need for the accurate prediction of its inception condition. The water quality, i.e., the distribution of nuclei, is one of the main contributors to the TVC inception ...
