In experiment, the bubble is generated by an electric spark in a water tank and recorded by a highspeed camera system. In numerical simulation, the evolution of the bubble is solved by adopting axisymmetric boundary integral equation, considering the surface tension effect. The results of experiments and numerical simulations are compared and good agreements are achieved. Both of them show that a counter-jet forms and penetrates the bubble at the end of the collapse stage, before a ring type bubble forms. Under the attraction of the tube wall due to Bjerknes force, a ring jet is generated, pointing towards the tube. On the basis of this, some physical quantities like the pressure on the tube wall and kinetic energy are calculated in a case study. The effects of tube diameters and tube lengths on the bubble＇s behaviors are also investigated.展开更多

The interaction is closely related to the counter-jet induced by the impact of shock waves. The formation of a counter-jet in an air bubble is related to the liquid jet formed in the same air bubble, but the mechanism is different with that of the counter-jet formation in a collapsing cavitation bubble. The formation of a counter-jet in an air bubble is related to discharge energy, air bubble size and radius of shock wave. With a given energy of the spark discharge, the formation of a counter-jet in an air bubble is related to δ / ε （the ratio of the dimensionless bubble-bubble distance to the dimensionless air bubble radius）. The counter-jet will only be produced when δ / ε is in the range of 1.2-2.2. The counter-jet in an air bubble is of an important nuclei-generating mechanism.展开更多
