Hi all
According to "Impeller eye cavitation damage of sundyne Bulletin", the cavitation damage appears due to overly large inlet eye diameter to impeller tip diameter ratio.
1- what is the eye diameter exactly?! is it inducer diameter?
2- what is the red line in the attached picture?
3-what is the effects of any changes such as enlarging and reducing of this diameter on the cavitation?
