What is Calculating NPSH for Pump Cavitation about?

This document discusses calculating the net positive suction head (NPSH) for a pump. It provides that the suction pipe is 60mm diameter, 15m long with a friction factor of 0.006, and a strainer loss of 10 velocity heads. Given a discharge of 17 L/s and minimum NPSH of 1.9m, with atmospheric pressure of 91kPa and vapor pressure of 2.2kPa, it asks to calculate the height at which cavitation will commence for the pump.
