Abstract

To study the behavior of a bubble clusters in cavitation devices, a numerical study of the dynamics of bubbles in a compressible liquid was performed, taking into account interfacial heat and mass transfer. The influence of regime and system parameters on the intensity of cavitation processes is considered. Physical and chemical transformations during the cavitation treatment of liquids are caused not only by the action of shock waves and emitted pressure pulses but also by extreme thermal effects. At the stage of extreme compression of the bubble, the vapor inside the bubble and the liquid in its vicinity transform into the state of a supercritical fluid. The presented model analyzes the nature of microflows in the interbubble space and carries out a quantitative calculation of the local values of the parameters of the velocity and pressure fields.
