cavitation

Cavitation damage continues to be a serious maintenance problem with valves, orifices, pumps, turbines, high head gates, hydraulic structures, etc. It results in costly repairs or replacement and annoying down-time. Our research over the past 40 years has provided information that allows us to identify the cause of cavitation and provide solutions to control or elinminate it from your system. Instead of repeatedly repairing or replacing damaged equipment, let TEC solve the problem and save you money. TEC Can Help Trouble-shooting cavitation problems for valves, pumps, hydraulic structures, etc Determining and eliminating the cause of the problem Evaluating safe operating conditions for cavitation free operation for your system Providing alternatives to allow cavitation free operating Recommending appropriate replacement equipment, if necessary Provide forensic engineering and expert testimony services Qualifications Dr. J Paul Tullis, president of TEC has 40 years experience solving cavitation problems for hydraulic structures and hydraulic equipment. He is author of the two most extensive publications on valve cavitation and has world-wide teaching and consulting experience on cavitation problems. Dr. Tullis, President of TEC received the ASCE Hydraulic Structures Medal and the Huber Research prize from ASCE as recognition for his extensive contributions in the field of cavitation.
