Petascale simulations of cloud cavitation collapse
The generation of a gaseous bubble, its violent collapse and rebound in a liquid that we believe is almost incompressible is another beauty of nature known as cavitation. The phenomenon appears in a wide range of applications---desired or undesired---where it is observed in arrangements involving not just one but many bubbles, broadly termed cloud

Experimental Study of Cavitation in a Kaplan Model Turbine
The cavitation processes present in a Kaplan model turbine was studied with the aim to identify mechanisms that promote erosive cavitation. The studies were carried out with high-speed filming, video filming and visual observations with stroboscopic ...

Cloud cavitation with particular attention to pumps [PDF]
In many cavitating liquid flows, when the number and concentration of the bubbles exceeds some critical level, the flow becomes unsteady and large clouds of cavitating bubbles are periodically formed and then collapse when convected into regions of ...

Experimental study on the influence of air injection on unsteady cloud cavitating flow dynamics
The main purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of air-injection technique on unsteady cloud cavitating flow dynamics. High-speed camera and pressure measurement system are used to record ventilated cavitation images and wall-pressure ...

Bubbly cloud dynamics and cavitation [PDF]
In many cavitating liquid flows, when the number and concentration of the bubbles exceeds some critical level, the flow becomes unsteady and large clouds of cavitating bubbles are periodically formed and then collapse when convected into regions of ...

Characterisation of the acoustic cavitation cloud by two laser techniques
An experimental investigation of the size and volumetric concentration of acoustic cavitation bubbles is presented. The cavitation bubble cloud is generated at 20 kHz by an immersed horn in a rectangular glass vessel containing bi-distilled water. Two laser techniques, laser diffraction and phase Doppler interferometry, are implemented and compared ...

One of the main causes of damage in hydraulic turbines is cavitation. While not all cavitation appearing in a turbine is of a destructive type, erosive cavitation can severely affect the structure, thus increasing maintenance costs and reducing the ...
