Abstract

In this paper we study the effects of a stiffened gas equation of state for air at high pressure and air chemistry with dissociation in numerical simulations of bubble collapse in water. Two types of bubble collapse are studied, with one corresponding to spherically symmetric collapse simulating single-bubble sonoluminescence (SBSL), and the other a GPa-shock-induced axisymmetric bubble collapse. The numerical method is a finite-volume based solver with diffuse material interface model. Verification and validation of the solver are demonstrated by comparing to analytical solutions and experimental observations. We find that for sonoluminescence, air chemistry and equation of state for air at high pressures can have significant effects on the peak temperature and pressure attained during the evolution, and that the peak temperature is on the order of 1 eV, which is close to that observed in experiments. For shock-induced bubble collapse, the pressure inside the bubble will not be as high as that in sonoluminescence due to the absence of spherical symmetry. However, the air chemistry still has a significant effect on the temperature of the bubble. We also examine the effect of multiple bubble interaction in shock-induced bubble collapse and find several mechanisms that can significantly increase the pressure in the water. These mechanisms include frontal-distal-side-collision, shock focusing, upstream-traveling shocks, and compression of the water near the centerline by the vortex generated by bubble collapse. These have important implications for cavitation erosion.
