Hard particle erosion and cavitation damage are two main wear problems that can affect the internal components of hydraulic machinery such as hydraulic turbines or pumps. If both problems synergistically act together, the damage can be more severe and result in high maintenance costs. In this work, a study of the interaction of hard particles and cavitation bubbles is developed to understand their interactive behavior. Experimental tests and numerical simulations using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) were performed. Experimentally, a cavitation bubble was generated with an electric spark near a solid surface, and its interaction with hard particles of different sizes and materials was observed using a high-speed camera. A simplified analytical approach was developed to model the behavior of the particles near the bubble interface during its collapse. Computationally, we simulated an air bubble that grew and collapsed near a solid wall while interacting with one particle near the bubble interface. Several simulations with different conditions were made and validated with the experimental data. The experimental data obtained from particles above the bubble were consistent with the numerical results and analytical study. The particle size, density and position of the particle with respect to the bubble interface strongly affected the maximum velocity of the particles.

Deformation-induced lateral migration of a bubble slowly rising near a vertical plane wall in a stagnant liquid is numerically and theoretically investigated. In particular, our focus is set on a situation with a short clearance $c$ between the bubbl e interface and the wall. Motivated by the fact that numerically and experimentally measured migration velocities are considerably higher than the velocity estimated by the available analytical solution using the Fax{e}n mirror image technique for $a/(a+c)ll 1$ (here $a$ is the bubble radius), when the clearance parameter $varepsilon(= c/a)$ is comparable to or smaller than unity, the numerical analysis based on the boundary-fitted finite-difference approach solving the Stokes equation is performed to complement the experiment. The migration velocity is found to be more affected by the high-order deformation modes with decreasing $varepsilon$. The numerical simulations are compared with a theoretical migration velocity obtained from a lubrication study of a nearly spherical drop, which describes the role of the squeezing flow within the bubble-wall gap. The numerical and lubrication analyses consistently demonstrate that when $varepsilonleq 1$, the lubrication effect makes the migration velocity asymptotically $mu V_{B1}^2/(25varepsilon gamma)$ (here, $V_{B1}$, $mu$, and $gamma$ denote the rising velocity, the dynamic viscosity of liquid, and the surface tension, respectively).
Cavitation in a liquid moving past a constraint is numerically investigated by means of a free-energy lattice Boltzmann simulation based on the van der Waals equation of state. The fluid is streamed past an obstacle and, depending on the pressure dro p between inlet and outlet, vapor formation underneath the corner of the sack-wall is observed. The circumstances of cavitation formation are investigated and it is found that the local bulk pressure and mean stress are insufficient to explain the phenomenon. Results obtained in this study strongly suggest that the viscous stress, interfacial contributions to the local pressure, and the Laplace pressure are relevant to the opening of a vapor cavity. This can be described by a generalization of Josephs criterion that includes these contributions. A macroscopic investigation measuring mass flow rate behavior and discharge coefficient was also performed. As theoretically predicted, mass flow rate increases linearly with the square root of the pressure drop. However, when cavitation occurs, the mass flow growth rate is reduced and eventually it collapses into a choked flow state. In the cavitating regime, as theoretically predicted and experimentally verified, the discharge coefficient grows with the Nurick cavitation number.
Deformation-induced lateral migration of a bubble slowly rising near a vertical plane wall in a stagnant liquid is numerically and theoretically investigated. In particular, our focus is set on a situation with a small clearance $c$ between the bubbl e interface and the wall. Motivated by the fact that experimentally measured migration velocity (Takemura et al. (2002, J. Fluid Mech. {bf 461}, 277)) is higher than the velocity estimated by the available analytical solution (Magnaudet et al. (2003, J. Fluid Mech. {bf 476}, 115)) using the Fax{e}n mirror image technique for $kappa(=a/(a+c))ll 1$ (here $a$ is the bubble radius), when the clearance parameter $epsilon(=c/a)$ is comparable to or smaller than unit, the numerical analysis based on the boundary-fitted finite-difference approach by solving the Stokes equation is performed to complement the experiment. To improve the understandings of a role of the squeezing flow within the bubble-wall gap, the theoretical analysis based on a soft-lubrication approach (Skotheim & Mahadevan (2004, Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf 92}, 245509)) is also performed. The present analyses demonstrate the migration velocity scales $propto{rm Ca} epsilon^{-1}V_{B1}$ (here, $V_{B1}$ and ${rm Ca}$ denote the rising velocity and the capillary number, respectively) in the limit of $epsilonto 0$.
The dynamics of the cavitation bubble collapse is a fundamental issue for the bubble collapse application and prevention. In present work, the modified forcing scheme for the pseudopotential multi-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann model developed by Li Q. et al. is adopted to develop a cavitation bubble collapse model. In the respects of coexistence curves and Laplace law verification, the improved pseudopotential multi-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann model is investigated. The independence between the kinematic viscosity and the thermodynamic consistency, surface tension is founded. By homogeneous and heterogeneous cavitation simulation, the capability of the present model to describe the cavitation bubble development as well as the cavitation inception is verified. The bubble collapse between two parallel walls is simulated. The dynamic process of collapsing bubble is consistent with the results from experiments and simulations by other numerical method. It is demonstrated that the present pseudopotential multi-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann model is available and efficient, and the lattice Boltzmann method is an alternative tool for collapsing bubble modeling.
Dynamics of a bubble impacting and sliding a tilted surface has been investigated through experimental and computational methods. textcolor{blue}{Specifically, shear stress generated on the wall has been calculated and compared with bacterium adhesio n force in order to evaluate a potential sanitization function. In experiments, the bubble-wall interaction has been characterized for several different wall angles. We numerically solved a force balance including buoyancy, hydrodynamic inertia & drag, lift and thin film force to determine the bubble motion. Results showed that the shear stress increases with the wall inclination. The maximum shear stress goes up to more than 300 Pa as a single bubble impacts and scrubs a tilted wall. We found that such a high shear stress is attributed to a rapid change in thin film curvature (flipping bubble/water interface) during the bouncing stage. Later, during the sliding stage, a smaller shear stress up to around 45 Pa is generated for a longer period of time. We also showed that the shear stress generated during the bouncing and sliding stages is high enough to remove bacteria from a surface as a potential method for removing bacteria from tilted surfaces.
