Imagine you’re running a marathon, and suddenly, your legs start feeling like they’re filled with lead. You’re putting in the same effort, but your pace is slowing down, and you’re not sure why. Well, that’s kind of what happens to pumps when they experience cavitation.
Think of it like this: When you’re sipping a drink through a straw and take a really strong sip, the liquid in the straw can start to boil and create bubbles. That’s because the pressure in the straw has dropped so low that the fluid can vaporize at room temperature. The same thing can happen in pumps, and those cavitation bubbles can cause some serious problems.When cavitation bubbles form in a pump, they don’t just sit there quietly.
One approach is to use specialized coatings on pump components, like impellers and casings. These coatings can help reduce friction and prevent cavitation bubbles from forming in the first place. It’s like giving our marathon runner a pair of high-tech running shoes to help them glide over the pavement.
