How to Calculate Thoma's cavitation factor?
Thoma's cavitation factor calculator uses Thoma's Cavitation Factor = (Atmospheric Pressure Head for Pump-Suction Head of Centrifugal Pump-Vapour Pressure Head)/Manometric Head of Centrifugal Pump to calculate the Thoma's Cavitation Factor, Thoma's cavitation factor formula is defined as the ratio of difference between atmospheric pressure head, suction head, and vapour pressure head to the manometric head. Thoma's Cavitation Factor is denoted by σ symbol.
