Cavitation Demonstration Apparatus .
Cavitation Demonstration is a small scale apparatus designed to demonstrate Cavitation utilizing an Hydraulics Bench
- The apparatus consists of a circular Venturi shaped section manufactured from clear acrylic
- Three Bourdon gauges indicate the static pressure upstream of the contraction, inside the throat and downstream of the expansion
- Flow
control valves upstream and downstream of the test section allow flow
conditions to be optimised for the demonstration of Cavitation
- Quick release fitting for easy connection to hydraulics bench
- Educational software available as an option
Technical Details
- Upstream pressure gauge: 63mm diameter, Range 0 to 1 Bar
- Throat vacuum gauge: 100mm diameter, Range -1 to 0 Bar
- Downstream pressure gauge: 63mm diameter, Range 0 -1 Bar
- Can
be operated independently from the Hydraulics Bench for visualisation
only utilizing a cold water mains supply with 0.4 litres/sec at 2 Bar
