How are these correction factors implemented in a formula?
Also, for the first graph, are the x-axis values ratios between orifice length and orifice cross section, or orifice cross section and pipe cross section?
So what you are saying is that since water is under superheated state at temperatures well below the water boiling point at atmospheric pressure, we can use these formulas since they were formulated under temperatures below the water boiling point at atmospheric pressure.
I think the properties...
Thanks ione for the reply.
I realize thats the general behavior. You increase the temperature, you increase vapor pressure and so for the same liquid cavitation will occur quicker.
All materials change with temperature, but water shows changes which are much greater than would be expected from...
I have been looking at pressure profiles and cavitational effects through sharp-edged orifice plates. How do these profiles, effects and the mathematical formulas change for round edged orifices? Are there any specific correction factors?
Cavitation is caused by changes in pressure. I want to know if temperature can have any effect on cavitation of fluid flowing through an orifice plate. The fluid in question is water. Most of the data available about cavitation is at room temperatures. Does increasing the temperature of water...
