About CAVITATIONS APPARATUS.
Specification:
CAVITATIONSAPPARATUS
The apparatus has been designed todemonstrate the phenomenon of cavitation. The present set-up consists of a testsection made of Acrylic having conversion and diversion section. Pressuretapings at appropriate position are provided.
This test section is having onecontrol valve at upstream side to regulate the water flowrate. Two pressuregauges are connected to these taping which give the pressure readout at thetime of flow passing through this test section. Present set-up isself-contained water re-circulating unit, provided with a sump tank,centrifugal pump etc.
Water is pumped by means ofcentrifugal pump and passing through the test section, it returns back to thesump which make the system re-circulating type. Flow of water is divertedeither to measuring tank or sump tank with the means of a flow diverter, whenneeded. Flow control valve and by-pass valve are fitted in water line toconduct the experiment on different flow rates.
Flow rate of water is measured withthe help of measuring tank with piezometer and stopwatch. The supplied set-upis complete in all respect. Only water supply and electricity supply is to beprovided by the end user for running the set-up.

FAQs of CAVITATIONS APPARATUS.:
Q: How does the Cavitations Apparatus measure cavitation effects?
A: The apparatus uses a high-speed, motor-driven agitator to generate cavitation in a stainless steel tank. It quantifies the impact on test specimens using an accurate, digital displacement measurement system with 0.01 mm resolution, capturing both qualitative and quantitative effects.
Q: What types of tests can be performed with this equipment?
A: You can conduct cavitation intensity and duration tests on various specimen materials up to 50 mm in diameter. The device measures displacement and visible damage under different conditions, following IS 7194 and ASTM standards.
Q: When should the cooling system be used?
A: The optional water circulation cooling system is recommended during extended or high-speed testing, especially when operating near the upper limit of the ambient temperature range (up to 60C), to ensure consistent test conditions and prevent overheating.
Q: Where is the Cavitations Apparatus typically installed?
A: This apparatus is designed as a tabletop unit and is commonly installed in laboratory environments within research, manufacturing, or quality control departments involved in engineering testing.
Q: What is the process for mounting a specimen in the test tank?
A: Specimens are securely placed in supplied holders which are then easily mounted within the stainless steel tank. The apparatus is engineered for straightforward sample insertion and removal, supporting quick setup and consistent positioning for every test.
Q: How does the apparatus enhance safety during operation?
A: Safety is prioritized through features such as overload protection, a transparent tank cover, and a safety interlock. These help prevent unintended operation, equipment damage, and allow safe observation of the test in progress.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this Cavitations Apparatus?
A: Users benefit from accurate and repeatable measurements, compliance with international standards, durable construction, and an intuitive interface. Its precise controls, robust safety features, and comprehensive accessories make it ideal for demanding engineering testing applications.
