Super Cavitation: The Bubble-Borne Math Behind Ultra-Fast Underwater Tech
About this episode
Join us as we unpack super cavitation—the math- and flow-driven phenomenon that lets objects ride a giant bubble through water. We break down the cavitation number, flow planes, and design challenges, and explore real-world applications from fast torpedoes and projectiles to high-speed transports and medical uses.
