Using CFD simulations to investigate the shear stress in hydrodynamic cavitation reactors coupled with experimental validation using colony count measurements

Abstract The current work investigates the shear stress distribution in hydrodynamic cavitation reactors with two different geometries using CFD simulations. Venturi type (positive geometry) and bore (negative geometry) were used to induce cavitation. Experimental validation of the predictions from...
