The effect of polymer additives on the bubble cavitation
The paper presents the results of research on an influence of macromolecular polymer additives on the cavitation phenomenon. A numerical analysis of a single cavitation bubble have been made. On the basis of the analysis it results that a polymer additive restricts significantly the cavitation, which has been shown in the form of a damping action on a single cavitation bubble.
