Abstract

A surface (110) to be exposed to liquid flow in a predetermined direction (F) relative to the surface has a plurality of predetermined regions (120) spaced in the predetermined direction, the surface in each region having at least one discontinuity (200) configured to generate, in liquid in the vicinity of that region, a pressure sufficient to initiate cavitation in that liquid.
