Gas bubble pulsation in a semiconfined space subjected to ultrasound

In the case of ultrasound application in biological tissues, gas bubbles might form and collapse within cells, in the intercellular spaces and on tissue surfaces. In this work the effect of confined space on the behavior of the gas bubble in the presence of ultrasonic field is studied. A numerical model for bubble pulsation in a planar liquid layer, bounded by two rigid walls, is developed. Surface tension at the interface between the host liquid and the gas in the bubble is considered as well. A mathematical statement and solution technique based on the boundary integral method are presented. In some cases, the bubble divides into two symmetrical parts and high-velocity jets are generated, aimed at the walls. The final velocity of the jets strongly depends on the surface tension of the host liquid. Two new parameters that predict the occurrence of jet formation are developed.     

New insights into the mechanisms of ultrasonic emulsification in the oil–water system and the role of gas bubbles

Ultrasonic emulsification (USE) assisted by cavitation is an effective method to produce emulsion droplets. However, the role of gas bubbles in the USE process still remains unclear. Hence, in the present paper, high-speed camera observations of bubble evolution and emulsion droplets formation in oil and water were used to capture in real-time the emulsification process, while experiments with different gas concentrations were carried out to investigate the effect of gas bubbles on droplet size. The results show that at the interface of oil and water, gas bubbles with a radius larger than the resonance radius collapse and sink into the water phase, inducing (oil–water) blended liquid jets across bubbles to generate oil-in-water-in-oil (O/W/O) and water-in-oil (W/O) droplets in the oil phase and oil-in-water (O/W) droplets in the water phase, respectively. Gas bubbles with a radius smaller than the resonance radius at the interface always move towards the oil phase, accompanied with the generation of water droplets in the oil phase. In the oil phase, gas bubbles, which can attract bubbles nearby the interface, migrate to the interface of oil and water due to acoustic streaming, and generate numerous droplets. As for the gas bubbles in the water phase, those can break neighboring droplets into numerous finer ones during bubble oscillation. With the increase in gas content, more bubbles undergo chaotic oscillation, leading to smaller and more stable emulsion droplets, which explains the beneficial role of gas bubbles in USE. Violently oscillating microbubbles are, therefore, found to be the governing cavitation regime for emulsification process. These results provide new insights to the mechanisms of gas bubbles in oil–water emulsions, which may be useful towards the optimization of USE process in industry.

Bubble proliferation in the cavitation field of a shock wave lithotripter

Lithotripter shock waves (SWs) generated in non-degassed water at 0.5 and 2 Hz pulse repetition frequency (PRF) were characterized using a fiber-optic hydrophone. High-speed imaging captured the inertial growth-collapse-rebound cycle of cavitation bubbles, and continuous recording with a 60 fps camcorder was used to track bubble proliferation over successive SWs. Microbubbles that seeded the generation of bubble clouds formed by the breakup of cavitation jets and by bubble collapse following rebound. Microbubbles that persisted long enough served as cavitation nuclei for subsequent SWs, as such bubble clouds were enhanced at fast PRF. Visual tracking suggests that bubble clouds can originate from single bubbles.

Study of interactions between liquid vortices and bubbles by simultaneous particle image velocimetry and laser-induced fluorescence tracking

Extensive experimental research has been conducted using the particle image velocimetry (PIV), laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) imaging and backlit photographic recordings to study the complex interactions between coherent vortex structures created in the shear layer of jets and the bubbles. Triggering of the naturally-developing instabilities of the shear layer by a thin, pulsed annular flow surrounding the jets allowed the creation of large, orderly structures with controllable frequency and phase. Synchronization of the triggering with data acquisition permitted phase averaging of the data and revealed several interesting phenomena. In particular, the evolution of large vortices and bubble fields could be tracked and the interactions could be studied. The horizontal and vertical velocity components of the liquid and bubble fields and the vertical velocity of both the vortex and bubble rings that were created were measured by the PIV. LIF and image recordings have been combined to visualize bubble trapping inside large eddy structures.     

Numerical simulations of the aspherical collapse of laser and acoustically generated bubbles

The details of nonlinear axisymmetric oscillations and collapse of bubbles subject to large internal or external pressure disturbances, are studied via a boundary integral method. Weak viscous effects on the liquid side are accounted for by integrating the equations of motion across the boundary layer that is formed adjacent to the interface. Simulations of single-cavitation bubble luminescence (SCBL) and single-bubble sonoluminescence (SBSL) are performed under conditions similar to reported experimental observations, aiming at capturing the details of bubble collapse. It is shown that any small initial deviation from sphericity, modeled through a small initial elongation along the axis of symmetry, may result in the formation and impact of two counter-propagating jets during collapse of the bubble, provided the amplitude of the initial disturbance is large enough and the viscosity of the surrounding fluid is small enough. Comparison between simulations and experimental observations show that this is the case for bubbles induced via a nano-second laser pulse (SCBL) during a luminescence event. In a similar fashion, simulations show that loss of sphericity accompanied with jet formation and impact during collapse is also possible with acoustically trapped bubbles in a standing pressure wave (SBSL), due to the many afterbounces of the bubble during its collapse phase. In both cases jet impact occurs as a result of P(2) growth in the form of an afterbounce instability. When the sound amplitude is decreased or liquid viscosity is increased the intensity of the afterbounce is decreased and jet impact is suppressed. When the sound amplitude is increased jet formation is superceded by Rayleigh-Taylor instability. In the same context stable luminescence is quenched in experimental observations. In both SCBL and SBSL simulations the severity of jet impact during collapse is quite large, and its local nature quite distinct. This attests to the fact that it is an energy focusing mechanism whose importance in generating the conditions under which a luminescence event is observed should be further investigated.     

Influence of different interfaces on laser propulsion in water environment

The dynamics of laser-induced semispherical cavitation bubbles are investigated by means of an optical beam deflection method. The bubbles were generated in water in the vicinity of three different interfaces: including water–air, water–colloid and water–solid, and also in the bulk. Numerical simulation shows that the propelled surface obtains more energy and longer propulsion from the semispherical bubble than from the spherical bubble during the first expansion of the bubble. The collapse time of the quasi-semispherical bubble is significantly less than the Rayleigh collapse time of the spherical bubble for all the cases considered in this work. The influence of water–air or water–solid interfaces on the collapse time of a semispherical bubble is similar to that of a spherical bubble. As the bubble energy grows, the effect of the water–colloid interface changes gradually from that of the water–solid to that of the water–air interface. In other words, the energy of the bubble dictates whether the water–colloid interface behaves as a water–solid or a water–air interface.     

Model for the dynamics of two interacting axisymmetric spherical bubbles undergoing small shape oscillations

Interaction between acoustically driven or laser-generated bubbles causes the bubble surfaces to deform. Dynamical equations describing the motion of two translating, nominally spherical bubbles undergoing small shape oscillations in a viscous liquid are derived using Lagrangian mechanics. Deformation of the bubble surfaces is taken into account by including quadrupole and octupole perturbations in the spherical-harmonic expansion of the boundary conditions on the bubbles. Quadratic terms in the quadrupole and octupole amplitudes are retained, and surface tension and shear viscosity are included in a consistent manner. A set of eight coupled second-order ordinary differential equations is obtained. Simulation results, obtained by numerical integration of the model equations, exhibit qualitative agreement with experimental observations by predicting the formation of liquid jets. Simulations also suggest that bubble-bubble interactions act to enhance surface mode instability.     

Observations of the collapses and rebounds of millimeter-sized lithotripsy bubbles

Bubbles excited by lithotripter shock waves undergo a prolonged growth followed by an inertial collapse and rebounds. In addition to the relevance for clinical lithotripsy treatments, such bubbles can be used to study the mechanics of inertial collapses. In particular, both phase change and diffusion among vapor and noncondensable gas molecules inside the bubble are known to alter the collapse dynamics of individual bubbles. Accordingly, the role of heat and mass transport during inertial collapses is explored by experimentally observing the collapses and rebounds of lithotripsy bubbles for water temperatures ranging from 20 to 60 °C and dissolved gas concentrations from 10 to 85% of saturation. Bubble responses were characterized through high-speed photography and acoustic measurements that identified the timing of individual bubble collapses. Maximum bubble diameters before and after collapse were estimated and the corresponding ratio of volumes was used to estimate the fraction of energy retained by the bubble through collapse. The rebounds demonstrated statistically significant dependencies on both dissolved gas concentration and temperature. In many observations, liquid jets indicating asymmetric bubble collapses were visible. Bubble rebounds were sensitive to these asymmetries primarily for water conditions corresponding to the most dissipative collapses.
