Intensification of the gas dissolution in the cavitating liquid

Abstract

The conditions for the maximum dissolution of a gas passed through the ultrasonic cavitation zone in a liquid are found. The respective values of the initial radius and density of the gas bubbles and the amount of the dissolved gas are determined depending on the density of the flow of ultrasonic energy. It is shown that, for a given state of the liquid, the density value of the ultrasonic energy flux can be found that provides the expected gas dissolution efficiency for the accepted model of the process.
