In this paper, caviation phenomena occanring at a restrictor in oil hydraulic system were investipted. As a result, the following conclusions were obtained.
(1) In case of bell mouth choke which has a rounded entrance and in case of orifice plate, the cavitation occurs in the downstream apart from the outlet edge of the restrictor. On the other hand, in case of sharp edge choke, the cavitation occurs at the inside of the choke.
(2) In case of sharp edge choke, the pressore at a place where the cavitation begins to be observed is much lower than the atmospheric pressure. But in case of bell month choke, the pressure is very high.
(3) In case of bell mouth choke and of crifice plate, cavitation does not affect the discharge coefficient. But in case of sharp edge choke, the discharge coefficient is saffected by cavitation
(4) In case of bell mouth choke, the critical outlet pressure at the beginning of cavitation for a certain value of inlet pressure becomes larger when the diameter of the choke is larger, the length of the choke is shorter, and the oil temperature is higher.
(5) When a baffle plate is placed just behind the outlet end of bell mouth choke, noise doe to the cavitation is reduced.
