Abstract
The propagation and reflection of one-dimensional plane unsteady waves and pulses in a mixture of a fluid with “two-phase” bubbles containing evaporating drops is investigated. A significant effect of unsteady evaporation of the drops in the zone ahead of the shock wave on the wave propagation is demonstrated. The evaporation of the drops results in a pressure increase ahead of the wave and the shock wave as it were “climbs” to increasing pressure level. In contrast to bubbly fluids with “single-phase” bubbles, in a fluid with “two-phase” bubbles, at a fixed phase volume fraction, a decrease in bubble size results in an increase rather than a decrease of the oscillation amplitude. The wave reflection from a solid wall is essentially nonlinear and the maximum pressure attained at the wall is several times greater than the incident-wave intensity.
