Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods for detecting cavitation in a reciprocating positive displacement pump. Fluid pressure proximate the pump's suction manifold is compared to a predetermined pressure that would be conducive to cavitation. If the detected pressure approximates the predetermined pressure, the presence of cavitation is confirmed via correlation of increased vibration.
