An anti-cavitation valve is a type of valve designed to prevent or minimize cavitation in a fluid system. Cavitation is the formation and collapse of vapor bubbles in a liquid due to rapid changes in pressure. The anti-cavitation valve helps regulate and control fluid flow by reducing pressure fluctuations and preventing the formation of damaging vapor bubbles. It achieves this through specific design features or mechanisms that manage the flow velocity and pressure, ensuring smooth and efficient operation while protecting the system from the detrimental effects of cavitation, such as erosion and noise.
