A single cavitation indicator based on statistical parameters for a centrifugal pump

Cavitation is one of the major problems associated with the operation of centrifugal pumps. Cavitation occurs when vapour bubbles that are formed due to a drop in pressure in the pipes upstream of the centrifugal pump implode under the added pressure within the volute of the pump. These implosions...
