what is cavitation ?

Answer Posted / anirban

From Bernoullie's theorem since the flow velocity increases
at the restriction(e.g. orifice) the pressure drops at that
location. As the reduced pr. equals the vapour pr. of the
liquid ,flowing through, vapor bubbles are formed. A sudden
expansion in the flow area after the restriction causes the
pr. to increase and the vapour bubbles collapse resulting in
erosion of pipe wall and generation of mechanical vibration.
This phenomenom is known CAVITATION.

Calculate the maximum pressure drop that can be allowed to occur across a control valve, so that we can prevent cavitation / flashing from occurring. Use the following formula: Δ P allow = Km (P1 – PvapourA) where, Δ P allow - the maximum allowable differential pressure for sizing purposes, or terminal pressure drop; Km- the valve recovery coefficient from the manufacturer’s catalogue; P1 - absolute inlet fluid pressure; PvapourA - absolute fluid vapour pressure at the inlet temperature; Use Atmospheric pressure = 101.3 kPa, P1 = 1200 kPa(g), PvapourA = 4 kPa, KM = 0.72
