Researchers embarked on a multidisciplinary project to determine how cavitation bubbles within micro- or nano-structures could mitigate surface erosion and enhance the efficiency in microfluidic ...

Power industry severe service applications can be difficult, but new advanced trim designs and external noise reduction ...

Cavitation erosion in stainless steel alloys arises when vapour or gas bubbles form and collapse repeatedly on a metal surface under oscillating pressure fields, generating high-velocity microjets and ...

Cavitation is defined as the phenomenon of forming and imploding vapor bubbles in a region where the pressure of the liquid falls below its vapor pressure. Cavitation and the resultant damage can ...

Continual development of polymer technology has enabled the creation of specialized coatings, which can offer excellent resistance to erosion, corrosion, and cavitation in hydroelectric equipment and ...

In the Marine industry, cavitation commonly occurs on hydrofoils, rudders, stabilizers, as well as on propulsion systems. Cavitation damage can lead to severe erosion problems and render equipment ...
