Abstract

The impulsive pressure generated by the collapse of a spark-produced cavitation bubble near a solid boundary is studied experimentally. The spatial distribution and the temporal variation of the transient event are directly recorded using a custom-made PVDF piezoelectric array transducer. The features and the possible mechanisms of the impulsive pressure are discussed. The high sensitivity, low cross-talk, and low cost of the piezoelectric array transducer indicate its applicability in high amplitude impulsive field measurements.
