Sound velocity measurements in a bubble cloud.

Sound velocity measurements in a bubble cloud.

Abstract

Sound velocity and attenuation measurements have been made in bubble clouds comprised of water and air. It has been known for some time that the sound velocity in a bubbly liquid is less than that of either the gas or liquid phase (e.g., 70 m/s at 2% void fraction for air bubbles in water). Standing-wave and time-of-flight methods in cylindrical tubes were used. A standing-wave technique patterned after Silberman [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 29, 925 (1957)] was used to measure sound velocity at low void fractions (<2%). In this work, more attention was given to the problem of obtaining a more uniform bubble size distribution which was not present in Silberman’s experiment. To achieve this, hypodermic needles were used to produce a reasonably nondispersive bubble size distribution within the cloud. Also, time-of-flight measurements were made at pulse frequencies well below the bubble resonance to observe the dependence of high void fraction (≳10%) on sound velocity and attenuation.
