CAVITATION DEMONSTRATION

CAVITATION DEMONSTRATION The unit contains a Venturi tube made of a transparent
acrylic material. When water flow rate increases, pressure at
the throat is reduced complying with the Bernoulli equation
until the vapour pressure of the liquid is reached. Under
these conditions small bubbles of vapour are created and
they collapse violently generating this phenomenon called
cavitation. The unit is equipped with two pressure gauges and
a vacuum gauge in order to measure the pressure before and
after the throat of the Venturi tube. In order to adjust the rate
and the pressure there are two valves placed at the in inlet and
outlet of the Venturi tube
