Based on references [1, 2, 3], we designed a set of device of the self-excited oscillation cavitating jet. Its cavitation mechanism and the result of jet impact block are analysed. With erosive volume as the object, the effect of the self-excited oscillation cavitating jet is compared with that of conventional continuous jet under the same condition. It is found cxperimeetally that the position of suction air and the air quantities and the geometrical parameters of the device have great effect on the erosive effects of the self-excited oscillation cavitating jet. In certain range of stand off distance, it's not obvious that the erosive effects of the self-excited oscillation cavitating jet changed with stand off distance for pulse cavitating jet and cavitation bubblies and droplet impinging on the target. Compared with continuous jet, the erosive vo-l ume and area of the self-excited oscillation cavitating jet is more than one time larger than the continuous jet.
