Question

**Problem 5: Cavitation**

A pump sucks water from a pond and discharges it into a pipeline as shown. What design choices would minimize the risk of cavitation in the pipe from the pond to the pump?

*Part A*
Small Δz or large Δz, and why?

*Part B*
Small Q or large Q, and why?

---

### Diagram Explanation:

The diagram illustrates a system where water is drawn from a pond and directed through a pipeline to a pump. Key elements in the diagram include:

- **Pond**: Provides the water source.
- **Pipeline**: Connects the pond to the pump.
- **Pump (P)**: Creates suction to draw water from the pond.
- **Vertical Distance (Δz)**: Represents the elevation difference between the water surface in the pond and the pump intake.
- **Flow Rate (Q)**: Indicates the volume of water moving through the pipeline per unit of time.
- **Pipe Characteristics (D, L, f)**: Denote the pipe diameter, length, and friction factor, respectively.

### Discussion:

To minimize cavitation risk:

- **Part A**: Consider whether a smaller or larger Δz is optimal.
- **Part B**: Determine the impact of a smaller or larger flow rate (Q) on cavitation propensity.

A forty-foot wooden hull fishing vessel sprang an unexpected leak a few days after leaving port. As more water entered the vessel, the engine was flooded, and the vessel eventually sank. Inspection of the vessel during the leak showed that the water was coming from underneath a refrigerated space in the front part of the vessel. In view of its construction style, the bilge underneath the vessel was inaccessible. The underwriter refused to indemnify the insured for the loss of the vessel by claiming that the latter had not exercised diligence to make the vessel seaworthy prior to the developing of the leak. The owner/master of the ship had no knowledge of the leak before the ship started its voyage. Do you think the loss is covered under the policy?
