A precise technique for the measurement of acoustic cavitation thresholds and some preliminary results

A description is given of a precise technique for measuring the threshold for acoustic cavitation inception. The system, which is automated so as to remove operator involvement, utilizes a slow ramping of the acoustic pressure amplitude until cavitation occurs. The detection criterion is the generat...
