Abstract

A cavitation system and a process for treating an object, specifically an object containing an amount of ceramic material, operates to increase a property of at least the ceramic material within the object. The cavitation system includes a high pressure pump or fluidjet, a nozzle, and a hyperbaric chamber that holds the object to be treated. The treatment of the object includes submerging the object in a fluid medium, which may be within a hyperbaric chamber. The fluidjet and the nozzle then generate a large number of cavitation bubbles within the fluid medium. The cavitation bubbles collapse near a surface of the object and release large amounts of energy, which improves or increases a property, such as a mechanical property, of at least the ceramic material in the object.
