Thom,
Is cavitation the separation of H and O or is it the vaporization of water in a low pressure environment? Scout "Thom Stewart" wrote in message ... Joe, Water is the liquid form of two gases; hydrogen & oxygen. Any separation will appear as a gas (Bubble) http://community.webtv.net/tassail/ThomPage |

Don't Know Scout,
Steam is also another form of water where H & O are still in combination an low pressure can create a form of vaporization. You tell me. Barometric Pressure variations are do to water vapors in solution with Air and water(H2O) is a Vapor(gas). I don't know or do I give a ****. Ole Thom http://community.webtv.net/tassail/ThomPage |

Cavitation is caused by low pressure. It is not a chemical
reaction/reduction but a form of phase change. The low pressure environment occurs because the water, as a liquid, cannot move fast enough to fill in the void left by the projectile/blade/etc. The resultant void is filled by water in the gaseous form. The gaseous water then takes times to undergo a phase change to liquid. Water is an odd molecule because of its polar nature. It has a bonding force with other water molecules, called hydrolysis, which creates the high surface tension and unique density variations with temperature. It also can cause cancer. Amen!
