Which fluid behavior arises when impeller speed increases excessively?

💡 Explanation

Cavitation occurs because localized pressure drops below the liquid’s vapor pressure due to high fluid velocities. Therefore voids instantly form when impeller speed increases and violently collapse, causing cavitation damage, rather than laminar flow that requires very low Reynold's number.
