What is the cavitation phenomenon of the pump and the cause of it?

1, cavitation

When the liquid is at a certain temperature and the pressure is reduced to the vaporization pressure at the temperature, the liquid generates bubbles. This phenomenon of generating bubbles is called cavitation.

2, cavitation collapse

The bubbles generated during cavitation flow to the high pressure, and their volume is reduced to collapse. This phenomenon in which the bubble disappears in the liquid due to the pressure rise is called cavitation collapse.

3. Causes and hazards of cavitation

When the pump is in operation, if a partial area of ​​the overcurrent portion (usually somewhere later in the impeller blade inlet), for some reason, the absolute pressure of the pumped liquid is reduced to the liquid vaporization pressure at that temperature, the liquid is in the At the beginning, vaporization starts to generate a large amount of steam to form bubbles. When the liquid containing a large amount of bubbles passes forward through the high pressure region in the impeller, the high pressure liquid around the bubbles causes the bubbles to sharply shrink and rupture. At the same time that the bubble condenses and ruptures, the liquid particle fills the cavity at a high speed, which generates a strong water hammer at this moment, and strikes the metal surface with a high impact frequency up to several hundred to several thousand atmospheres. The impact frequency can reach tens of thousands of times per second, and in severe cases, the wall thickness will be broken down.

4, the cavitation process

The process of creating bubbles in the pump and rupturing the bubbles to subject the flow components to damage is the cavitation process in the pump. In addition to the destructive effect on the overcurrent components, the pump will generate noise and vibration, and cause the performance of the pump to drop. In severe cases, the liquid in the pump will be interrupted and will not work properly.
