description | This study explores the mitigation of cavitation damage in hydraulic engineering through air entrainment. The primary aim is to experimentally analyze the shock wave characteristics emitted by cavitation bubbles adjacent to air bubbles affixed to a tube nozzle. The schlieren optical system is utilized to visualize the shock wave, while a hydrophone measures its pressure. Experiments are conducted on cavitation bubbles induced by the spark-generated method in the vicinity of air bubbles, varying the dimensionless distances and sizes of the air bubbles. The results indicate that (1) The introduction of an air bubble noticeably changes the morphology, kinematic behavior, and shock wave features of the cavitation bubble. (2) Four distinct shock wave patterns are identified based on the quantity and shape of the shock wave, with variations in the cavitation bubble's collapsing behavior and shock wave characteristics across different patterns. (3) The dimensionless distance γ and size δ exert significant influence on the shock wave's quantity, pressure peak, shape, and energy. With γ decreases or δ increases, the shock wave quantity increases while the shock wave intensity decreases. This investigation of the interaction between cavitation bubbles and air bubbles is essential for elucidating the mechanism through which air entrainment mitigates cavitation damage. |
