Ultrasonic atomization of liquids in drop-chain acoustic fountains.
When focused ultrasound waves of moderate intensity in liquid encounter an air interface, a chain of drops emerges from the liquid surface to form what is known as a drop-chain fountain. Atomization, or the emission of micro-droplets, occurs when the acoustic intensity exceeds a liquid-dependent threshold. While the cavitation-wave hypothesis, which states that atomization arises from a combina...
متن کاملImprovement of acoustic theory of ultrasonic waves in dilute bubbly liquids.
The theory of the acoustics of dilute bubbly liquids is reviewed, and the dispersion relation is modified by including the effect of liquid compressibility on the natural frequency of the bubbles. The modified theory is shown to more accurately predict the trend in measured attenuation of ultrasonic waves. The model limitations associated with such high-frequency waves are discussed.
متن کاملAnalysis of Size Correlations for Microdroplets Produced by Ultrasonic Atomization
Microencapsulation techniques are widely applied in the field of pharmaceutical production to control drugs release in time and in physiological environments. Ultrasonic-assisted atomization is a new technique to produce microencapsulated systems by a mechanical approach. Interest in this technique is due to the advantages evidenceable (low level of mechanical stress in materials, reduced energ...
متن کاملAn ultrasonic frequency sweep interferometer for liquids at high temperature: 1. Acoustic model
[1] A general acoustic model for a frequency sweep rod-liquid-rod interferometer applicable to high-temperature silicate liquids is presented. The wave propagations in the acoustic model are solved according to the accurate elastic wave equation and the acoustic wave equation. The solutions indicate that when a pulsed wave is sent down a buffer rod, which is partially immersed in a silicate liq...
متن کاملObservation and Analysis of Surface Acoustic Wave Induced Atomization
The ability to excite instabilities in free fluid surfaces via acoustic excitation is well known, even to the point of atomization. Surprisingly, atomization phenomena exist at frequencies up to 1 GHz, because peak piezoelectrically-driven vibration velocities remain remarkably constant at about 1 m/s regardless of the excitation frequency if one makes use of different materials and vibration m...
