Factors causing cavitation of horizontal slurry pumps

There are many factors that cause cavitation in slurry pumps. Today we will learn about the causes of cavitation from the physical properties of the fluid.
The influence of the physical properties of the fluid on the cavitation of the slurry pump mainly includes: the purity of the transported fluid, PH value and electrolyte concentration, amount of dissolved gas, temperature, vaporization pressure, etc.
Effect of purity: Purity refers to the concentration of solid particles contained in the fluid. The more solid impurities contained in the fluid, the more nuclei will cause cavitation. This accelerates the occurrence and development of cavitation.
Influence of PH value and electrolyte concentration: The cavitation mechanisms of slurry pumps transporting polar media and centrifugal pumps transporting non-polar media are different. The cavitation damage of centrifugal pumps transporting polar media may include mechanical action, chemical corrosion, and electrochemical corrosion; while the cavitation damage of centrifugal pumps transporting non-polar media may only have mechanical effects.
Influence of gas solubility: Foreign studies have shown that the dissolved gas content in the fluid promotes the generation and development of cavitation nuclei.
