Emerson Cavitation Tunnel was created in 1949.

A cavitation plate is the adjustable metal plate that runs along the bottom of the transom on a V-drive. Some people call the flat metal plate on an outboard or outdrive a cavitation plate but the correct name is anti ventilation plate and cavitation and ventillation are not the same. It is similar in function to Trim Tabs. A cavitation plate is used to adjust the trim of a V-Drive and keep the nose on the water. Here is a link to a picture on PerformanceBoats dot com

In this picture of a V-drive, the cavitation plate is anodized red.

cavitation is caused when vapour pressure in the fluid in higher equal to the surrronding presure. in the case of centrifugal pump, when the hydraulic pressure (due to height) in the fluid falls below the vapour pressure of the fluid itself, cavitation wil occur.
