Answer / mohan tayade

Cavitation

Cavitation also can cause pump vibration. It occurs when the
system's available net-positive suction head (NPSHa) is less
than the pump's requirement (NPSHr). Indications of a
cavitating pump can include noise, fluctuating flow rates, a
decrease in discharge pressure, and vibration.
Cavitation-induced vibration is caused by imploding vapor
bubbles that introduce shock waves in a pump, shortening the
life cycle of all of the pump's mechanical components. The
components that commonly fail prematurely are impellers,
wear rings, and casings. If cavitation is present, NPSHa
should be increased above NPSHr by making changes in the
system design or operation to reduce or eliminate
cavitation. Cavitation does not always produce pump
vibration, and the induced vibration often is random and
unmeasurable.

Greetings This question is about hydraulics and I request an expert to answer it. A simple hydraulic machine is made up of two heads, a larger one with a larger force inside a wider pipe and a smaller one with a smaller force inside a smaller pipe in width as in the second picture on this link: http://science.howstuffworks.com/hydraulic1.htm The question is this: what happens if the smaller head and the smaller force doesn’t exist but the smaller pipe is high enough to take all the liquid? For example the larger head is 1.00 sqr metre and can go down 1.00m under a weight of 100.00kg. The cross sectional area of the smaller pipe is 0.001 sqr metre. Now when the larger head goes down 1.00m, how high the liquid from the wider pipe can go into the smaller pipe of the cross sectional area of 0.001 sqr metre? Regards
