Theory of local electrification of cavitation bubbles: new approaches.
The theory of local electrification of cavitation bubbles has been generalised. The major cases for a local electrification of bubbles in a cavitation field were considered; i.e., fragmentation and deformation of cavitation bubbles. The splitting of cavitation bubbles was considered taking into account surface tension, bubble perturbation, Stokes force and electrostatic forces between like charges on the wall of the collapsing neck of the fragment bubble. The problem of the uncompensated charge on the surface of the deformed cavitation bubble is solved. For this purpose radial deformations are considered in terms of the paraboloid of rotation and axial deformation approximated by one cavity hyperboloid of rotation. The maximum electric strength is accounted for. An explanation for some physical and physico-chemical effects in cavitation fields is proposed in terms of the electrical theory of the local electrification of cavitation bubbles.
