✦ Synopsis

Theoretical interpretation of the dissolving of gas bubbles in liquids has usually been based on a model which ignores the effect of motion of the liquid on the concentration field and predicts a linear relation between square of sixe and time. Experimental data plotted in this way often show a decrease in slope. Theoretical results are now available which take radial motion of the liquid into account. These show that a decrease in slope (d(&)/dr) is in accordance with theory. Some experimental results are in good agreement with theory but others show marked deviations. Possible reasons for these devk&ons are discussed.
