Answer:
Captivation is the formation of vapor
bubbles. It can be avoided by appropriate
runner speed and polished stainless steel
blades.

Explanation:
Heavy vibrations and noise are
observed during cavitation.
Efficiency and output are also reduced.
Captivation is the formation of vapor
bubbles within a liquid at low-pressure
regions that occur in locations in which the
liquid has been increased to excessive
velocities.
In reaction turbine by following methods we
can avoid captivation:
1. We can use a turbine runner of
stainless steel.
2. Runner blades should be polished.
3. By appropriate speed of the runner.

Answer:
Here it is....
Explanation:
Cavitation is a phenomenon in which rapid
changes of pressure in a liquid lead to the
formation of small vapor-filled cavities in
places where the pressure is relatively low. ...
The process in which a void or bubble in a
liquid rapidly collapses, producing a shock
wave, is called inertial cavitation.
