Stable cavitation bubbles ultrasonic frequency

Fig. 1.1 The regions for transient cavitation bubbles and stable cavitation bubbles when they are defined by the shape stability of bubbles in the parameter space of ambient bubble radius (R0) and the acoustic amplitude (p ). The ultrasonic frequency is 515 kHz. The thickest line is the border between the region for stable cavitation bubbles and that for transient ones. The type of bubble pulsation has been indicated by the frequency spectrum of acoustic cavitation noise such as nf0 (periodic pulsation with the acoustic period), nfo/2 (doubled acoustic period), nf0/4 (quadrupled acoustic period), and chaotic (non-periodic pulsation). Any transient cavitation bubbles result in the broad-band noise due to the temporal fluctuation in the number of bubbles. Reprinted from Ultrasonics Sonochemistry, vol. 17, K.Yasui, T.Tuziuti, J.
