Cavitation Bubble Collapse near a Curved Wall by the Multiple-Relaxation-Time Shan-Chen Lattice Boltzmann Model

The cavitation bubble collapse near a cell can cause damage to the cell wall. This effect has received inereasing attention in biomedical supersonics. Based on the lattice Boltzmann method, a multiple-relaxation-time Shan-Chen model is built to study the cavitation bubble collapse. Using this model, the cavitation phenomena induced by density perturbation are simulated to obtain the coexistence densities at certain temperature and to demonstrate the Young-Laplace equation. Then, the cavitation bubble collapse near a curved rigid wall and the consequent high-speed jet towards the wall are simulated. Moreover, the influences of initial pressure difference and bubble-wall distance on the cavitation bubble collapse are investigated.     

Thermodynamic of collapsing cavitation bubble investigated by pseudopotential and thermal MRT-LBM

The thermodynamic of cavitation bubble collapsing is a complex fundamental issue for cavitation application and prevention. The pseudopotential and thermal multi-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann method (MRT-LBM) is adopted to investigate the thermodynamic of collapsing cavitation bubble in this paper. The simulation results satisfy the maximum temperature equation of the bubble collapse, which derived from the Rayleigh-Plesset (R-P) equation. The validity of thermal MRT-LBM in simulating the collapse process of cavitation bubble is verified. It shows that the temperature evolution of vapor-liquid phase is well captured. Furthermore, the two-dimensional (2D) temperature, velocity and pressure field of the bubble near a solid wall are analyzed. The maximum temperature inside the bubble and wall temperature under different position offset parameters are discussed in details.     

Dynamics of a cavitation bubble near a solid wall

The cavitation bubble dynamics, the variation of pressure and velocity fields of the surrounding liquid in the process of the bubble axisymmetric compression near a planar solid wall are considered. It is assumed that the liquid is at rest at the initial moment of time, and the bubble has a spheroidal shape. The liquid is assumed inviscid and incompressible, its motion being potential. The bubble surface deformation and the liquid velocity on the surface are computed by the Euler scheme using the boundary element method until the moment of the collision of some parts of the bubble surface with one another. The influence of the distance of the bubble from the wall and its initial nonsphericity on the liquid pressure and velocity fields, the bubble shape, and the pressure inside the bubble at the end of the time interval under consideration are studied. The maximum pressure in liquid is shown to realize at the bottom of the cumulative jet arising at the bubble collapse with direction to the wall. In the upper part of this jet, the velocity and pressure are practically constant, and the pressure in the jet is approximately equal to the pressure in the bubble.     

Investigation of cavitation bubble collapse in hydrophobic concave using the pseudopotential multi-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann method

The interaction between cavitation bubble and solid surface is a fundamental topic which is deeply concerned for the utilization or avoidance of cavitation effect.The complexity of this topic is that the cavitation bubble collapse includes many extreme physical phenomena and variability of different solid surface properties.In the present work,the cavitation bubble collapse in hydrophobic concave is studied using the pseudopotential multi-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann model(MRT-LB).The model is modified by involving the piecewise linear equation of state and improved forcing scheme.The fluid-solid interaction in the model is employed to adjust the wettability of solid surface.Moreover,the validity of the model is verified by comparison with experimental results and grid-independence verification.Finally,the cavitation bubble collapse in a hydrophobic concave is studied by investigating density field,pressure field,collapse time,and jet velocity.The superimposed effect of the surface hydrophobicity and concave geometry is analyzed and explained in the framework of the pseudopotential LBM.The study shows that the hydrophobic concave can enhance cavitation effect by decreasing cavitation threshold,accelerating collapse and increasing jet velocity.     

On the thermodynamic behaviors and interactions between bubble pairs: A numerical approach

Thermodynamic behaviors and interactions between bubble pairs are important to better understand the cavitation phenomena. In this study, a compressible two-phase model, accounting for thermal effects to investigate the thermodynamic behaviors and interactions between bubble pairs, is developed in OpenFOAM. The volume of fluid (VOF) method is adopted to capture the interface. Validations are performed by comparing the simulation results of a single bubble and bubble pairs with corresponding experimental data. The dynamical behaviors of bubble pairs and their thermodynamic effect at different relative distances γ are investigated and discussed, which help reveal the bubble cloud dynamics. The quantitative analysis of γ effects on the maximum temperature during bubble collapse is performed with three distinct stages identified. For a single bubble collapsing near the rigid surface, the thermodynamic characteristics at different relative distances are similar to that of the bubble pairs, but the maximum temperature is higher since the single bubble can collapse to a smaller volume.     

Numerical study on the desorption processes of oil droplets inside oil-contaminated sand under cavitation micro-jets

The removal of the adsorbed oil droplet is critical to deoiling treatment of oil-bearing solid waste. Ultrasonic cavitation is regarded as an extremely useful method to assist the oil droplets desorption in the deoiling treatment. In this paper, the effects of cavitation micro-jets on the oil droplets desorption were studied. The adsorbed states of oil droplets in the oil-contaminated sand were investigated using a microscope. Three representative absorbed states of the oil droplets can be summarized as: (1) the individual oil droplet adsorbed on the particle surface (2) the clustered oil droplets adsorbed on the particle surface; (3) the oil droplet adsorbed in a gap between particles. The micro-jet generation during the bubble collapse near a rigid wall under different acoustic pressure amplitudes at an ultrasonic frequency of 20 kHz was investigated numerically. The desorption processes of the oil droplets at the three representative absorbed states under micro-jets were also simulated subsequently. The results showed that the acoustic pressure has a great influence on the velocity of micro-jet, and the initial diameter of cavitation bubbles is significant for the cross-sectional area of micro-jets. The wall jet caused by a micro-jet impacting on the solid wall is the most important factor for the removal of the absorbed oil droplets. The oil droplet is broken by the jet impinging, and then it breaks away from the solid wall due to the shear force generated by the wall jet. In addition to a higher sound pressure, the cavitation bubble at a larger initial diameter is more important for the desorption of the clustered oil droplets. Conversely, the micro-jet generated by the cavitation bubble at a smaller initial diameter (0.1 mm) is more appropriate for the desorption of the oil droplet in a narrow or sharp-angled gap.     

Cavitation bubble behavior and bubble–shock wave interaction near a gelatin surface as a study of in vivo bubble dynamics

The collapse of a single cavitation bubble near a gelatin surface, and the interaction of an air bubble attached to a gelatin surface with a shock wave, were investigated. These events permitted the study of the behavior of in vivo cavitation bubbles and the subsequent tissue damage mechanism during intraocular surgery, intracorporeal and extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy. Results were obtained with high-speed framing photography. The cavitation bubbles near the gelatin surface did not produce significant liquid jets directed at the surface, and tended to migrate away from it. The period of the motion of a cavitation bubble near the gelatin surface was longer than that of twice the Rayleigh's collapse time for a wide range of relative distance, L/R_max, excepting for very small L/R_max values (L was the stand-off distance between the gelatin surface and the laser focus position, and R_max was the maximum bubble radius). The interaction of an air bubble with a shock wave yielded a liquid jet inside the bubble, penetrating into the gelatin surface. The liquid jet had the potential to damage the gelatin. The results predicted that cavitation-bubble-induced tissue damage was closely related to the oscillatory bubble motion, the subsequent mechanical tissue displacement, and the liquid jet penetration generated by the interaction of the remaining gas bubbles with subsequent shock waves. The characteristic bubble motion and liquid jet formation depended on the tissue's mechanical properties, resulting in different damage mechanisms from those observed on hard materials.
