Cavitation Equation Calculator

The equation governing cavitation depends on the specific conditions of the flow and the properties of the fluid. One important parameter used to characterize cavitation is the cavitation number (), defined as the ratio of the local pressure drop to the pressure of the fluid vapor,

Where:

  • is the vapor pressure of the fluid,
  • is the local pressure in the fluid.
