How slip length influences wall shear stress from jetting cavitation bubbles
Boundary slip can strongly influence the wall shear stress generated by a collapsing cavitation bubble near a solid surface. Here, we investigate this effect by systematically varying slip length l $l$ and bubble stand-off distance gamma $\gamma$ . We show that boundary slip has negligible influence on bubble dynamics and jet formation prior to jet impact, but markedly alters the near-wall flow during jet spreading. Increasing l $l$ substantially reduces both outward and inward peak shear stresses, suppresses flow separation during fast jet spreading and reorganises the spatio-temporal stress distribution. We derive a scaling for the maximum outward stress tau Subscript m $\tau _m$ with tau Subscript m Baseline almost equals mu upper U 0 upper R e Superscript 0.5 Baseline left parenthesis upper U Subscript e Baseline divided by upper U 0 right parenthesis Superscript 1.5 Baseline divided by left parenthesis 0.3 upper R Subscript italic max Baseline plus l left parenthesis upper U Subscript e Baseline upper R e divided by upper U 0 right parenthesis Superscript 0.5 Baseline right parenthesis $\tau _m\approx {\mu {U}_{0}{Re}^{0.5}(U_e/{U}_{0})^{1.5}}/ ({0.3R_{\textit{max}}+l(U_e {Re}/{U}_{0})^{0.5}})$ , which captures the coupled effects of slip length, maximum bubble radius upper R Subscript italic max $R_{\textit{max}}$ and the outer-edge velocity upper U Subscript e $U_e$ of the spreading wall jet. Combined with a scaling for upper U Subscript e $U_e$ in terms of gamma $\gamma$ and l $l$ , this yields a semi-empirical predictive framework for the maximum wall shear stress. These results clarify how interfacial slip regulates extreme cavitation-driven shear and offer a basis for its prediction and control.- 4 August 2026

Theoretical analysis of the dynamic characteristics of a spatial three-bubble system
The coupling effects and energy transfer mechanisms in multi-bubble systems have been long-standing focal points in fluid dynamics research. In this study, we theoretically investigate the dynamics of a spatial three-bubble system using a compressible bubble dynamics model that incorporates phase transition and migration effects. The dynamic behaviors and energy conversion processes are analyzed for different spatial configurations. Validation is performed through a series of spark-generated bubble experiments. Energy distribution and dissipation characteristics are compared across three experimental cases: two non-collinear arrangements with different initial dimensionless distances, and a linear arrangement. The results show that for bubbles positioned symmetrically, the interaction is governed by both dimensionless distance and arrangement shape. Furthermore, using a dimensionless framework, the effects of spatial configuration and flow field compressibility on system dynamics are examined. In particular, when the three bubbles are symmetrically arranged, fluid compressibility dominates the central bubble's energy dissipation.

Fluid compressibility related to migration on bubble dynamics
This work investigates the effects of fluid compressibility related to bubble migration. These effects are described based on a theoretical model for compressible bubble dynamics that considers phase transition and migration, as proposed by Zhang. Bubble experiments of different types are conducted to validate this theoretical model further. The model well captures experimental results near the wall and the free surface, illustrating that neglecting the compressibility effects of bubble migration results in overestimating the maximum radius and period during the second oscillating cycle. Disregarding the effects results in a higher peak migration kinetic energy during the second cycle but lower most of the time, which is related to the temperature, gas mass, and pressure inside the bubble. Furthermore, the discussion reveals that this migration-related compressibility can be enhanced by increasing the Mach number or vapor percentage.
