To explore the translational motion of bubbles in cavitation liquids containing high-concentration cavitation nuclei,evolutions of bubbles are recorded by a high-speed camera, and translational trajectories of several representative bubbles are traced. It is found that translational motion of bubbles is always accompanied by the fragmentation and coalescence of bubbles, and for bubbles smaller than 10 μm, the possibility of bubble coalescence is enhanced when the spacing of bubbles is less than 30 μm. The measured signals and their spectra show the presence of strong negative pressure, broadband noise,and various harmonics, which implies that multiple interactions of bubbles appear in the region of high-intensity cavitation.Due to the strong coupling effect, the interaction between bubbles is random. A simplified triple-bubble model is developed to explore the interaction patterns of bubbles affected by the surrounding bubbles. Patterns of bubble interaction, such as attraction, repulsion, stable spacing, and rebound of bubbles, can be predicted by the theoretical analysis, and the obtained results are in good agreement with experimental observations. Mass exchange between the liquid and bubbles as well as absorption in the cavitation nuclei also plays an important role in multi-bubble cavitation, which may account for the weakening of the radial oscillations of bubbles.展开更多

In this paper, dynamic equations are derived by Lagrangian formalism and the behavior of MMBs subject to a combination field of magnetic and ultrasound field in an incompressible infinite fluid is analyzed numerically. The results show that the magnetic field can promote bubble expansion and hinder its translational motion,and both the enhancement and obstruction effects will weaken with the decrease of bubble size. The initial translational velocity has almost no effect on bubbles motion. Besides, the maximum expansion radius of MMBs increases with the ferrofluid shell thickness, while that of the common MBs is just the opposite. In addition, the periodic change of Levich viscous drag caused by the rebound leads to the step-like translational motion. Finally, the ferrofluid-shell model can be replaced by the model of non-magnetic microbubbles in magnetic liquid at high driving frequency.展开更多

Differing from the traditional formulation which considered either the rotational motion or the translational motion of the tank, this formulation can be applied for rigid-liquid-flexible coupling dynamic analysis of tank undergoing translational and rotational motion based on the theorem of momentum and the theorem of moment of momentum. Furthermore, stiffening terms are included in the dynamics equations of the flexible beam. Firstly, the dynamic equations of the rigid-liquid coupling system and the flexible beam are derived, respectively, and then by introducing the Lagrange-multipliers,the rigid-liquid-flexible coupling equations can be combined with acceleration constraint equations. Finally, the mix differential-algebraic equations are solved to investigate the rigid-liquid-flexible coupling dynamic performance of the system.展开更多
