Hello,

I would like to simulate the next phenomenon:

There is a small cylinder which is loaded with water fully. (Cylinder is fully closed.) Volume of the cylinder starts to increase slowly until the start of the cavitation process. Finally the volume decreases back to the original value, the cavitation bubbles disappier, the water vapour turns into water and water phase will be in the full field again.

In the simulation this process operates until the beginning of cavitation, water wapour develops in the field, but this phase does not turn into water after decreasing of the volume.

Are there some ideas to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance;
Roland
