This paper presents a theoretical description of diffusion growth of a gas bubble after its nucleation in supersaturated liquid solution. We study systems where gas molecules completely dissociate in the solvent into two parts, thus making Sievert's solubility law valid. We show that the difference between Henry's and Sievert's laws for chemical equilibrium conditions causes the difference in b...

We consider three-dimensional clusters of equal-volume bubbles packed around a central bubble and calculate their energy and optimal shape. We obtain the surface area and bubble pressures to improve on existing growth laws for three-dimensional bubble clusters. We discuss the possible number of bubbles that can be packed around a central one: the " kissing problem " , here adapted to deformable...

Bubble formation and dissolution have a wide range of industrial applications, from the production beverages to foam manufacturing processes. The rate at which bubble expands or contracts has significant effect on these In current work, hydrodynamics an isolated expanding due mass transfer in pool supersaturated gas–liquid solution is investigated. complete scalar transportation equation (advec...

In the case of spherically symmetric chemical burning, only very special hydrodynamical detonation solutions exist. These are the so called Jouguet detonations, in which the burning front moves at sound velocity with respect to the burnt matter. Usually it is believed that the situation is similar in the case of bubble growth in cosmological phase transitions. In this paper it is shown that act...

To the Editor:—I read with considerable interest the article by Benavides et al. describing experiments of air bubble growth in water during exposure to 100% nitrous oxide, 100% xenon, or 50% xenon–50% oxygen. Although the experiments were nicely conducted, they explore a physics of gas flux in an unconstrained bubble permitted to grow spherically. Importantly, this geometry has limited biologi...

Our understanding of homogeneous vapour bubble growth is currently restricted to asymptotic descriptions their limiting behaviour. While attempts have been made incorporate both the inertial and thermal limits into models, early stages not captured. By accounting for changing driving force restriction growth, we present an inertio-thermal model capable accurately capturing evolution a from nano...
