Cavitation and Bubble Dynamics (Hardcover, New)

This book deals with the problem of cavitation, which is the formation of voids in a liquid or gas and with the behaviour of bubbles in liquids. There are currently few books written on this subject in such a clear and unified style. The study of cavitation and bubbly flow applies to many areas of interest; from valve damage in hydroelectric equipment, ship propellors and internal combustion engines to the performance of turbines and pumps of all sizes, to physiological phenomena such as the cracking of joints and the "bends". This book gives a coherent and unified treatment of the subject with an emphasis on the underlying physical phenomena. It is an important reference text for engineers who must deal with the problems of cavitation and bubbly flow and also for scientists interested in the basic phenomena.
