Excerpt from Incipient and Developed Cavitation in Liquid Cryogens
Cavitation characteristics of liquid hydrogen and liquid nitrogen ¿owing in a transparent plastic venturi have been determined and conventional cavitation-incep tion-parameter curves are given. Representative de veloped cavitation data, consisting of pressure and temperature measurements within fully-developed cavi ties, are also given; measured temperatures and pres sures within the cavities were generally not in thermo dynamic equilibrium. Existing theory was used to obtain equations which correlate the experimental data for developed cavities in liquid hydrogen or liquid nitrogen. The theory is extended to include the effect of cavity thickness and the experimental data are used to evaluate the results. Some recommendations for future work are given.
