Determination of optimum conditions of ultrasonic cavitation treatment of high-viscous and non-Newtonian liquid media

The article presents the results of theoretical and experimental studies aimed at the determination of optimum conditions of the ultrasonic action (geometry of the technological volume) for the cavitation treatment of high-viscous and non-Newtonian liquids. Developed model of the generation of the cavitation area lets determine distribution of the cavitation zone in the technological volumes of various sizes and forms. Carried out experimental studies allow prove adequacy of the proposed model and possibility to increase the volume of developed cavitation zones by the optimization of the conditions of ultrasonic action.
