The cavitaion index across a valve or pipe fitting is defined as the ratio of difference between upstream pressure and vapor pressure to the pressure drop across the valve or fitting. The index at which incipient cavitation, damage, or choked flow occurs is based on testing and depends on the type of valve or fitting.
