The reality of zero-point energy coherence during cavitation bubble collapse within dielectric fluids permits the development of a variety of novel machinery including heaters, mixers, refining equipment and  other process applications.  

Historically cavitation has been considered a nuisance phenomenon to be strictly avoided due to the rapid destruction of pump impellors and process piping components that can occur. Cavitation phenomena, including the new field of Sonoluminescence, are well known to provide temperatures exceeding 1,000,000 Kelvin, easily vaporizing metal underwater, with very little power input required. The plainly obvious excess energy is effectively drawn from the local energetic vacuum. 

A variety of cavitation equipment is already commercially available including the Hydrosonic? pump which operates with a COP approaching 1.5 providing pumping, heating and mixing of various dielectric process fluids and mixtures in a single piece of equipment.   Other manufacturers are also entering the field promising even higher energy yields. Cavitation machines will likely be retrofitted extensively to existing infrastructure and industrial process applications.

Principles of Operation:

Cavitation equipment generally employs a perforated drum that spins rapidly within a close fitting housing to  create cavitation bubbles within the process fluid such that contact between the collapsing bubbles and the components of the pump is not likely to occur.  This is necessary to avoid literally vaporizing the internal surfaces of the machine as ZPE is collected from the energetic vacuum via the Casimir effect.

The resulting pressure within such microscopic bubbles is estimated to exceed 1010 kPa by a wide margin during the final stages of collapse toward the fluid state singularity. This bubble implosion effectively converts the tremendous radiation pressure of the vacuum flux that is bearing down on the bubble wall, into an extremely hot vapor pressure within the shrinking bubble.   The turbulent flow of these cavitation bubbles also provides extremely efficient, fine mixing for industrial applications.

The rapid tumbling of the polarized dielectric molecules in conjunction with shearing of the fluid also contributes to energy collection from the local vacuum as the polarized molecules oscillates within the triboelectric field that is generated.  This effect can be seen in a variety of moving plate capacitor machinery reported to operate with a COP of up to 10 (100 watts in / 1000 watts out)

Cavitation equipment may also employ ultrasonic excitation, to provide resonant oscillation of the pulsating cavitation bubbles that continually expand and then shrink in an ongoing cycle, cohering energy from the vacuum during each collapse phase and then "re-inflating" in response to the ultrasonic energy input.  This process has been labeled Sonoluminescence in recognition of the fact that much of the cohered energy yield appears as pico-frequency light pulses. 

Cavitation principles can also be applied to molten or fluid metals with similar results and by utilizing implosive gas mixtures within the working fluid, such as hydroxy gas, which effectively replaces the collapsing action of the cavitation bubbles.
