A CFD and experimental study on cavitation in positive displacement pumps: Benefits and drawbacks of the ‘full’ cavitation model

To fill the gap in the literature in terms of numerical studies of positive displacement (PD) pumps in a cavitating condition, a comprehensive and transient computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of a PD pump, simulating the cavitation arising during the suction stroke, was created. The ‘full’ cav...
