Cavitation Demonstration F1-28, Armfield Limited, Bridge House, England

LABORATORY FOR PROCESS ENGINEERING

The apparatus consists of a circular Venturi tube, three Burdon pressure gauge, which measures the static pressure, the control valve on the apparatus.
The apparatus is used to demonstrate the phenomenon of cavitation, which is due to sudden changes in fluid flow velocity and pressure in the tube water.

Due to the increase in the flow velocity, according to Bernoulli’s equation, the pressure falls until a boundary corresponds to the voltage of the steam of the flowing fluid. At this pressure, water vapor bubbles forming strongly affect the elements in the system (propellers, impellers, etc.) and thus destroy them.
