I am sure that putting the Whaley dam in a vacuum chamber to
break the cavitation limit was seriously considered by the team
Well, that doesn't seem very likely to me; I just thought
some of the background info - from a reputable source -
as to *why* there was (usually) a limit might be interesting.
Still, as usual, I am sure you think you know best.

primary school before it was all play and no learning.
