Cavitation over an Orifice: Overview

Creo Tutorials > Creo Flow Analysis Tutorials > Additional Tutorials > Creo Flow Analysis Additional Tutorials > Tutorial 4 - Cavitation over an Orifice > Cavitation over an Orifice: Overview

This tutorial simulates the cavitation phenomenon over a sharp-edged orifice. Water enters the inlet at a pressure of 250000 Pa and exits at a pressure of 95000 Pa. You can see the geometry and conditions for the simulation in the figure below:

1. Outlet

Outlet Pressure = 95000 K

2. Inlet

Inlet Pressure = 250000 K

Water Density = 1000 kg/m3

Water Viscosity = 0.001 Pa.s

Saturation Pressure = 3540 Pa
