Research of Cavitation at High Shear Stress
Journal Title: Strojnicky casopis - Journal of Mechanical Engineering - Year 2016, Vol 66, Issue 1
Abstract
The article describes the theory of cavitation at high values of shear stress in a viscous liquid. For this purpose, a spatial model of two cylindrical shells imposed concentrically was designed. In the narrow gap between the cylinders the temperature, density and viscosity of liquid is constant. Shear stress is induced by the rotary motion of the inner cylinder, resulting in a change of velocity and pressure fields. Due to the pressure drop between the cylinders there is a precondition to the formation of cavitation bubbles at the point of the lowest static pressure. To verify the assumption was made CFD model based on simplified physical model, through which cavitation was qualitatively and quantitatively assessed. In this paper the results of the numerical solution will be presented alongside with basic form of experimental device for physical generation of cavitation at high values of shear stress.
