  1. Cavitation - Wikipedia

    Inertial (or transient) cavitation is the process in which a void or bubble in a liquid rapidly collapses, producing a shock wave. It occurs in nature in the strikes of mantis shrimp and …

  2. Cavitation | Pressure, Ultrasound, Bubbles | Britannica

    4 days ago · Cavitation, formation of vapour bubbles within a liquid at low-pressure regions that occur in places where the liquid has been accelerated to high velocities, as in the operation of …

  3. Cavitation - The Engineering ToolBox

    Cavitation occurs in fluid flow systems where the local static pressures are below the fluids vapor pressure. Cavitation is a common problem in pumps and control valves - causing serious …

  4. Cavitation: Causes, Effects, and Solutions - armoloy.com

    Dec 18, 2024 · Learn the basics of cavitation: causes, effects, and solutions for industries relying on pumps, turbines, and fluid dynamics.

  5. Cavitation in Physics: Causes, Effects & Real-Life Uses - Vedantu

    According to Cavitation meaning “It is a process in which the liquid's static pressure falls below its vapour pressure, resulting in the creation of small vapour-filled cavities in the liquid”. These …

  6. Cavitation - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

    Common causes of cavitation are pressure fluctuations associated with the flow of the liquid and the vibration of a surface in contact with it. Unlike other kinds of damage, vapor cavitation is …

  7. Cavitation Flows | Fluid Mechanis Lab

    Cavitation is a phenomenon in which small cavities are generated in a liquid. It occurs when the local static pressure is lower than the vapor pressure of the gas dissolved in the liquid. …

  8. Cavitation 101 - Pumps & Systems

    Mar 18, 2024 · Cavitation comes from vapor bubbles collapsing inside a liquid, sending shockwaves throughout the liquid. The vapor bubbles are created when there is a local …

  9. Cavitation: Definition, How to Detect and How to Prevent

    Apr 1, 2025 · Definition: Cavitation occurs when the liquid in a pump turns to a vapor at low pressure. It occurs because there is not enough pressure at the suction end of the pump, or …

  10. What Is Cavitation - Electrical Engineering Center

    Cavitation occurs when the static pressure of a liquid drops below its vapor pressure, leading to the formation of small vapor-filled cavities or “bubbles” within the liquid.
