Abstract

En 中文
Cavitation bubbles collapsing near boundaries create liquid flow through their center of mass movement, the formation of liquid jets, and long living vorticities. Here, we demonstrate robust pumping of the liquid with a compact and simple geometry, the open end of a thin-walled circular capillary tube filled with liquid. We study the dynamics of the cavitation bubbles and report on the resultant microjet formation through experiments and simulations. In the experiments, the dynamics of laser-induced cavitation bubbles are captured with high-speed microscopy. Simulations show excellent agreement with the experiments. The jet flow pumps liquid flow toward the capillary opening. The simulation reveals that, in the current study range, both the non-dimensional inner diameter of the capillary and the non-dimensional stand-off distance show influences on the jet width, and only the non-dimensional stand-off distance affects the maximum jet velocities. The results demonstrate that the confinement of the bubble within the capillary alters the anisotropic pressure field around the bubble, leading to a more mild collapse.
