water or rotating machinery. The CaviBlaster system consists of an engine or motor driving a pump that propels water through a proprietary nozzle. As the water exits the nozzle, the pressure drops and the water begins to vaporize. As the jet velocity drops or when it hits an obstacle the voids (bubbles) implode due to increased pressure. The collapsing bubbles release energy and produce ultrasound, creating a distinctive noise. The force generated by the energy released during implosion of the cavitation bubbles creates smallscale shock waves that tear foreign material off of the surface to be cleaned.
