متن کاملSimple improvements to classical bubble nucleation models.
We revisit classical nucleation theory (CNT) for the homogeneous bubble nucleation rate and improve the classical formula using a correct prefactor in the nucleation rate. Most of the previous theoretical studies have used the constant prefactor determined by the bubble growth due to the evaporation process from the bubble surface. However, the growth of bubbles is also regulated by the thermal...
متن کاملA consistent approach to bubble-nucleation theory
We summarize recent work on the consistent calculation of bubble-nucleation rates. Our approach is based on the notion of a real coarse-grained potential. The bubble-nucleation rate is calculated through an expansion around the semiclassical saddle point associated with tunnelling. We resolve outstanding problems related to the convexity of the potential, the double-counting of the effect of fl...
متن کاملAcoustic trapping in bubble-bounded micro-cavities
We present a method for controllably producing longitudinal acoustic trapping sites insidemicrofluidic 5 channels. Air bubbles are injected into amicro-capillary to create bubble-bounded ‘micro-cavities’. A cavity mode is formed that shows controlled longitudinal acoustic trapping between the two air/water interfaces along with the levitation to the centre of the channel that one would ex10 pec...
متن کامل269b The Role of Critical Cavities in Homogeneous Bubble Nucleation
Mark J. Uline and David S. Corti Previous computational and density-functional theory (DFT) studies[1,2] of cavities (regions devoid of particle centers) within the superheated Lennard-Jones (LJ) liquid revealed that there exists a so-called critical cavity, whereby the presence of cavities with radii larger than some critical radius caused the superheated liquid to become unstable, i.e., phase...
