Abstract

A hyper-frequency method enabling toinvestigate into the bubble size distribution of a bubble cloud in which bubble radii arelower than the equilibrium one is displayed. It is based on analysing the void ratedissipation after the acoustic irradiation is switched off in terms of bubble dissolution.The experimental evaluation of this method has been performed in air saturated water withcavitation bubble cloud generated in a 308 kHz stationary acoustic field. The sizedistributions achieve range from 19 μm to 59 μm and allow to follow the influencesof both the acoustic pressure and the irradiation duration on them. By taking into accountthe bubble coalescences occurring during the bubble rise after the end of the acoustic irradiation, the raw distributions have been qualitatively nuanced thanks to the exploitationof a probabilistic model of free bubble coalescence.
