Abstract: | In a sono-reactor, complex ultrasound pressure wave signal can be detected, containing multiple information related to acoustic cavitation. In this present study, acoustic cavitation in a cylinder is investigated numerically. Via Fast Fourier Transfer (FFT), the sound pressure signals from sonotrode emitting surface are separated into harmonics, sub/ultra-harmonics and cavitation white noise: (1) the appearance of harmonics proved the non-linear propagation of ultrasound, (2) at the vibratory amplitude from 5∼20μm, only harmonics exists in the frequency spectra, corresponding to expansion and compression of non-condensable gas (NCG), (3) at the vibratory amplitude range of 30∼50μm, the occurrence of sub/ultra-harmonics demonstrated gaseous cavitation occurred, and (4) at the vibratory amplitude higher than 55μm, cavitation white noise arose, pointing out the initiation of vaporous cavitation. Based on the combination of frequency spectra and cavitation zones distribution, the acoustic cavitation state in water liquid is determined. |
