Abstract:The synchronization between the air pressure fluctuations and the depth of liquid penetration into the nozzle during bubble departures was investigated using joint recurrence quantification analysis. In the experiment, the bubbles were generated from a glass nozzle into distilled water. During the analysis, the recurrent rate coefficients were calculated for the depth of liquid penetration into the glass nozzle and pressure changes in the gas supply system. The study was conducted by two air volume flow rates,… Show more
“…In 10 , it was shown that the chaotic character of bubble trajectories is caused by the departed bubble’s shape and liquid flow generated by the moving bubble in the bubble column. Moreover, two groups of phenomena responsible for the chaotic nature of bubble behaviours (the first group—bubble interface oscillations, liquid flow around the needle, and the second group—processes which appear in the gas supply system) are proposed 12 – 14 . It can be assumed that the liquid flow above the needle can modify the processes that appear in the needle, and consequently, the pressure fluctuation in the gas supply system.…”
In the present paper, the hydrodynamic interactions between bubbles and the gas supply system to a needle were experimentally investigated. In experimental investigations in one of the needles, the air volume flow rate was constant, and in the neighbouring needle, it was changed. In the paper, the methods of data analysis: wavelet decomposition, and FFT were used. It was shown that the hydrodynamic interaction becomes stronger with the increase in air volume flow rate supply to the needle. The occurrence of hydrodynamic interaction modifies bubble growth time slightly, but it significantly modifies the bubble waiting time. In the case when the liquid penetration into the needle is repeatable, then the percentage disturbances in bubble growth time and bubble waiting time are close to each other. Moreover, it can be concluded that synchronized or alternative bubble departures from twin neighbouring needles (occurring due to hydrodynamic interaction) are possible by modifying the bubble waiting time. The modification of hydrodynamic interaction between bubbles, the bubbles themselves, and gas supply systems can be used to control the bubble departure process.
