Bubbles growing in supersaturated solutions at reduced gravity

Abstract

This work investigates bubbles growing in a liquid

The Peristaltic Motion inside a Vertical Cylindrical Tube Surrounded Vapour Bubble with Two-Phase Density Flow

“…Thermal degassing which involves mass transfer but also heat transfer is thus achieved (as opposed to decompression degassing which only involves mass transfer in theory). To study the bubble generation and growth separately from the gravitational effects on them, the experiments where performed in microgravity conditions [5,6]. The experimental observations were compared to a theoretical model [7] derived considering spherical bubbles in a uniformly cooled liquid that were heated from the inside.…”

The virtual mass of a growing and collapsing bubble

“…The derived C V were functions of the bubble diameter. A recent publication in this field 14 stated, "Surveying previous work as outlined above reveals that a full understanding of the mechanisms that govern bubble growth has not been reached. "…”

Self-similar growth of a gas bubble induced by localized heating: the effect of temperature-dependent transport properties

“…To overcome this problem an experimental design has been proposed (Divinis et al, 2004) which admits the generation of just a single bubble in the liquid. This is realized by using a miniature thermistor as a heater, submerged in the bulk of the liquid.…”
