Investigation on the vibration and flow instabilities induced by cavitation in a centrifugal pump

Numerical calculations and experimental measurements were carried out in a closed hydraulic test rig to investigate the vibration characteristics and instabilities induced by the development of cavitation in a centrifugal pump. The internal flow characteristics in the impeller and vibration signals...
