## Abstract Recent advances in dense, multiphase, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) have allowed accurate simulation of the gas and particle motion in bubbling and circulating fluidized beds. Since fluidizedโbed reactors are used for many chemical processes, a simulation must also be able to accur

โฆ Synopsis
An efficient (simplified) method for solving problems of spherically symmetric dynamics of a small gas bubble in a compressible fluid is proposed. The method is based on the joint use of the full problem statement (the gas dynamics equations for the gas and the fluid) and its relevant simplifications. Some approximate statements are discussed. In the proposed method, the rarefaction and compression of the gas during the slow motion of the bubble surface is assumed to be uniform over the bubble volume. At the same time the fluid in the thin zone adjacent to the bubble is considered to be slightly compressible. Otherwise the gas dynamics equations are used for the gas and the fluid. The dynamics of the fluid in the thick external zone are described by the linear acoustics only. The proposed simplified method and two others used in literature are estimated by comparison of their numerical results with those obtained in full statement.

This paper analyzes the growth or collapse of a spherical bubble in an incompressibie, viscous fluid. Theoretical results include the timewise variations in the bubble size and its growth or collapse rate, the fluid pressure, and the rate of energy dissipation. The analysis is general and may be app
A new model of bubble dynamics is constructed in order to investigate single-bubble sonoluminescence (SBSL). In this model, the effects of non-equilibrium evaporation and condensation of water vapor at the bubble wall and of thermal conduction both inside and outside a bubble are taken into account.
