Cavitation erosion testing
Sochorec, Rostislav ; Moravec, Prokop (referee) ; Rudolf, Pavel (advisor)
The thesis is a literature survey of three most common methods of accelerated tests of cavitation erosion. These are cavitation induced by changing flow velocity in relatively conventional high-speed water tunnels, vibratory method which uses ultrasound to produce cavitation, and jets of liquid impacting surface of materials. In order to understand them, there is also a brief general introduction to the issue of cavitation and most important factors which can have effect on cavitation tests results.
Cavitation erosion
Lecnar, Lukáš ; Hudec, Martin (referee) ; Rudolf, Pavel (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis focuses on cavitation erosion and it is divided into two main parts. The first part is devoted to the search of cavitation erosion focusing on erosion mechanisms. In the first chapter of this search is briefly described cavitation process and different types of cavitation are listed here. Hydrodynamic cavitation which is the key type for this bachelor’s thesis is described in the following chapter. The final and the most extensive chapter is devoted to cavitation erosion of solids which is largely associated with the effects of the mechanical action of the fluid. The second part is devoted to the experimental study of cavitation erosion of samples. The goal was to document the experiment which was carried out in order to gain knowledge about the material removal by cavitation erosion.
Výpočetní analýza potenciálu kavitační eroze v hydraulickém stroji
Sedlář, M. ; Zima, Patrik ; Müller, M.
The paper describes a new model for efficient modeling of water cavitation erosion potential in turbulent cavitating flow. The number and size of the cavitation nuclei in the inlet flow are predicted empirically or experimentally using the acoustic spectrometer. The bubble dynamics is described using the Rayleigh-Plesset equation along the flow streamlines obtained from the 3D RANS equations. The model of the erosion potential is based on the estimation of the energy dissipated by the collapses of the cavitating bubbles. The paper also describes the experiment carried out in the cavitation tunnel in the SIGMA R&D Institute. The CFD model is tested for 2D and 3D geometry. It is shown that the erosion potential of the first collapses is several orders higher than the potential of the subsequent collapses. The numerically determined location and magnitude of the first collapses are compared with the photographs of the erosion pattern. The agreement for the tested cases is very good.
