Journal ArticleDOI
The cavitation instability induced by the development of a re-entrant jet
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the instability of a partial cavity induced by the development of a re-entrant jet on the basis of experiments conducted on a diverging step and showed that the extent of the auto-oscillation domain primarily depends upon the average adverse pressure gradient in the channel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Material and velocity effects on cavitation erosion pitting
TL;DR: In this paper, pitting tests were conducted in a cavitation tunnel in the velocity range 45-90 m/s at a constant cavitation number, and a scaling law for pitting was derived accounting for both material properties and flow velocity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact Load Measurements in an Erosive Cavitating Flow
TL;DR: In this article, the impact load measurements were carried out in a high-speed cavitation loop by means of a conventional pressure sensor flush-mounted in the region of closure of the cavity where maximum damage was observed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Outstanding cavitation erosion resistance of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) coatings
TL;DR: The resistance to cavitation erosion of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) coatings with two molecular weight 0.6 and 10.5 Mg/mol was tested in a hydrodynamic tunnel during 98 h at a flow velocity of about 90 m/s.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamic Effect on a Cavitating Inducer-Part I: Geometrical Similarity of Leading Edge Cavities and Cavitation Instabilities
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the thermodynamic effect on a cavitating inducer from joint experiments in cold water and Refrigerant 114, focusing on leading edge cavitation and cavitation instabilities.
