The Emerson Cavitation Tunnel is a specialized facility used for testing and studying cavitation phenomena in fluid dynamics, particularly in relation to marine and hydraulic applications. Cavitation occurs when a liquid is subjected to rapid changes in pressure, leading to the formation of vapor bubbles. These bubbles can collapse violently, causing damage to surfaces and affecting the performance of propellers, pumps, and other fluid machinery. Emerson's facility typically includes a long, submerged tunnel where water is circulated at controlled velocities.
