Progress Report on Cavitation Research at Massachusetts Institute of Technology

This paper, a second progress report on the study of the nature of hydraulic cavitation being conducted at M.I.T., is continued along the lines reported in the first paper published in Mechanical Engineering, April, 1935, and discusses information obtained regarding the relation between frequency of vapor collapse and the controlling variables. The current work tends to confirm that previously reported. A new method for the study of resistance to cavitation attack is described.
