Prediction of Cavitation Intensity and Erosion Area in Centrifugal Pump by Using Cavitating Flow Simulation with Bubble Flow Model

Prediction of Cavitation Intensity and Erosion Area in Centrifugal Pump by Using Cavitating Flow Simulation with Bubble Flow Model

We developed a numerical simulation code and a method of estimation for predicting the cavitation erosion in pumps. Cavitation erosion is closely related to cavitation intensity based on bubble dynamics. A “bubble flow model” simulates detailed bubble behavior in a cavitating flo...
