摘要

Multifarious hydrodynamic cavitating flow patterns have been detected in the flow of de-ionized water through a 40.5 mu m wide and 100.8 mu m deep rectangular slot micro-orifice established inside a 202.6 mu m wide and 20 000 mu m long microchannel. This article presents and discusses the flow patterns observed at various stages of cavitation in the aforementioned micrometer-sized silicon device. Cavitation inception occurs with the appearance of inchoate bubbles that emerge from two thin vapor cavities that emanate from the boundaries of the constriction element. A reduction in the cavitation number beyond inception results in the development of twin coherent unsteady large vapor cavities, which appear just downstream of the micro-orifice and engulf the liquid jet. The shedding of both spherical and nonspherical vapor bubbles and their subsequent collapse into vapor plumes downstream of the orifice occurs intermittently. A further reduction in the exit pressure only aids in the elongation of the two coherent cavities and produces two stable vapor pockets. Additionally, interference fringes are clearly observed, showing that the vapor pocket has a curved interface with liquid. At low cavitation numbers, the flow undergoes a flip downstream and the two vapor pockets coalesce and form a single vapor pocket that is encircled by the liquid and extends until the exit of the microchannel. The cavitating flow patterns are unique and are markedly different from those reported for their macroworld counterparts. Evidence of pitting due to cavitation has been observed on the silicon just downstream of the micro-orifice. It is therefore apparent that cavitation will continue to influence/impact the design of high-speed MEMS hydraulic machines, and the pernicious effects of cavitation in terms of erosion, choking, and a reduction in performance will persist in microfluidic systems if apposite hydrodynamic conditions develop.
