But I became interested and decided to conduct a cavitation analysis. But it didn't work out. I managed to calm the discrepancies using the SIPLESS method and the Hight order term relaxation - ALL 0.25:

But in the end I get inadequate results.

The inlet flow has increased significantly, although it should have been 3.7.
The pressure became negative and became -27, although it was 10 before the mixture.
The outlet pressure dropped significantly and became negative, although previously it was 3 atm.

I think there is no cavitation there. But why does the calculation taking into account cavitation behave this way? Now that's a question.
