Abstract: Interaction between a collapsing bubble and a free surface is investigated theoretically and experimentally using high speed photography. A limit value for the distance from the free surface to ...

Abstract: Self-resonating jets have been developed which take advantage of the natural tendency of a jet to organize in large structures. Tests have shown that these jets are both highly erosive and a ...

Abstract: The method of matched asymptotic expansions is used to investigate the behavior of a collapsing bubble near a solid wall. Cases are studied in which the ratio ε between the initial spherical ...

Abstract: The problem of the growth of a spherical isolated bubble in a superheated liquid has been extensively studied. However, very little work has been done for the case of a cloud of bubbles. ...

Abstract: This paper presents some results obtained with the simulation of a submerged oscillating jet impacting on a solid wall. The oscillating jet which organizes into large vortical structures is ...

Abstract: To improve the understanding of the scaling effects of nuclei on cavitation inception, bubble dynamics, multibubble interaction effects, and bubble-mean flow interaction in a venturi Cavitation ...

Abstract: Exposure to ultrasonic acoustic waves can greatly enhance various chemical reactions. Ultrasonic acoustic irradiation of organic compounds in aqueous solution results in oxidation of these compounds. ...

Abstract: This paper presents results of experiments where selective injection of a drag-reducing polymer solution into the tip vortex region of the blades of an 11.5 in. diameter propeller was effective ...

Abstract: A method for efficient solid particle removal from liquids using microporous tubes with flow swirl and flow interruption is presented. Experiments were performed using particle laden water obtained ...
