INTRODUCTION TO FLUID MECHANICS:VAPOR PRESSURE AND CAVITATION

■ VAPOR PRESSURE AND CAVITATION Recall that temperature and pressure are dependent properties for pure sub- stances during phase-change processes, and there is one-to-one correspondence between temperatures and pressures. At a given pressure, the temperature at which a pure substance changes phase is called the saturation temperature, Tsat. Likewise, at a given temperature, the pressure […]
