Summary:
A new model of bubble dynamics is constructed using linear wave equation, including
effects of variation of the gas temperature inside the bubble and the liquid temperature near
the bubble, and effects of evaporation-condensation of the liquid vapour at the bubble wall.
The liquid is assumed water and the gas inside the bubble is only vapour (neglecting noncondensable
gas). The temperature inside the bubble and the liquid temperature are
numerically calculated by solving the energy equation both inside (vapour-phase) and outside
(liquid-phase) the bubble (using finite difference method). The pressure inside the bubble is
obtained numerically without assuming that it follows any assuming relation. The results
reveal that the bubble radius, the liquid temperature, and the pressure and temperature inside
the bubble change with time periodically. Both the pressure and temperature become higher
when the radius becomes minimum. The present theoretical result is compared with data from
other reference and with another theoretical model to check the validity of the present model.
The calculated result approximately fits with the data of the previous studies.
