Cavitation is a phase-change phenomenon from the liquid to the gas phase due to an increased flow velocity. As it causes severe erosion and noise, it is harmful to hydraulic machinery such as pumps, valves, and screw propellers. However, it can be utilized for water treatment, in chemical reactors, and as a mechanical surface treatment, as radicals and impacts at the point of cavitation bubble collapse can be utilized. Mechanical surface treatment using cavitation impacts is called “cavitation peening”. Cavitation peening causes less pollution because it uses water to treat the mechanical surface. In addition, cavitation peening improves on traditional methods in terms of fatigue strength and the working life of parts in the automobile, aerospace, and medical fields. As cavitation bubbles are utilized in cavitation peening, the study of cavitation bubbles has significant value in improving this new technique. To achieve this, many numerical analyses combined with field experiments have been carried out to measure the stress caused by bubble collapse and rebound, especially when collapse occurs near a solid boundary. Understanding the mechanics of bubble collapse can help to avoid unnecessary surface damage, enabling more accurate surface preparation, and improving the stability of cavitation peening. The present study introduces three cavitation bubble types: single, cloud, and vortex cavitation bubbles. In addition, the critical parameters, governing equations, and high-speed camera images of these three cavitation bubble types are introduced to support a broader understanding of the collapse mechanism and characteristics of cavitation bubbles. Then, the results of the numerical and experimental analyses of non-spherical cavitation bubbles are summarized.
