Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The cavitation inception and the following bubble cloud formation due to the backscattering of HIFU from bubble interfaces are investigated experimentally and numerically. A laser-induced bubble in the vicinity of the geometrical focus of HIFU is utilized as a primary cavitation. Optical observation with a high-speed video camera and pressure measurement with a fiber optic prove hydrophone (FOPH) are conducted simultaneously in the present experiments. Also, the minimum negative pressure distribution around the bubble cloud is calculated with the ghost fluid method to investigate the forming process of the bubble cloud in the experiments. The results show that the bubble cloud grows accompanied with the formation of multiple layers composed of tiny bubbles, and becomes a cone-shape. The pressure measurement reveals that the cavitation inception pressure is about -26 MPa when 2.0 mg/L<DO<3.5 mg/L at about 296 K.
