Springer eBooks

the Main Features of Cavitating Flows -- Nuclei and Cavitation -- The Dynamics of Spherical Bubbles -- Bubbles in a Non-Symmetrical Environment -- Further Insights into Bubble Physics -- Supercavitation -- Partial Cavities -- Bubbles and Cavities on Two-Dimensional Foils -- Ventilated Supercavities -- Vortex Cavitation -- Shear Cavitation -- Cavitation Erosion.

The present book is aimed at providing a comprehensive presentation of cavitation phenomena in liquid flows. It is further backed up by the experience, both experimental and theoretical, of the authors whose expertise has been internationally recognized. A special effort is made to place the various methods of investigation in strong relation with the fundamental physics of cavitation, enabling the reader to treat specific problems independently. Furthermore, it is hoped that a better knowledge of the cavitation phenomenon will allow engineers to create systems using it positively. Examples in the literature show the feasibility of this approach.
