Experimental and numerical study of cavitating flow with suction in a mixing reactor for water treatment

Recent trends in the applications of sonochemical reactors as an advanced oxidation process for the remediation of microbial hazards associated with water and wastewater: A critical review

“…This cavitation number is used to determine the conditions in the reactor and the degree of cavitation, which is defined by the following Eq. (23) [37] , [93] , [94] . …”

Hydrodynamic Cavitation: A Promising Technology for Industrial-Scale Synthesis of Nanomaterials

“…Most of the existing research relates to applications, the characteristics of HCRs have been rarely focused, which largely influences the development and application of HC technology. Even though a few researchers have made important contributions in theoretical (Sarvothaman et al, 2019), computational (Badve et al, 2015), and experimental (Zhang et al, 2018) aspects of HCRs, their cavitation generation mechanism, internal flow fields, external characteristics, and scale-up law are not well understood by utilizing experimental flow visualization, particle image velocimetry, and computational fluid dynamic methods, especially for the R-S HCRs. More importantly, the universal research and design methods (e.g., the theoretical and numerical methods for design the rotor, stator, and flow path, scale-up law, and optimization method) for HCRs have not been established yet.…”

Numerical Model of an Ultrasonically Induced Cavitation Reactor and Application to Heavy Oil Processing

“…Several applications of UIC have been developed for wastewater treatment as well as for pharmaceutical, medical, and food industries [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. UIC is also widely applied in the petroleum and biofuels industry.…”
