Energy Aspects of Acoustic Cavitation and Sonochemistry: Fundamentals and Engineering covers topics ranging from fundamental modeling to up-scaled experiments. The book relates acoustic cavitation and its intrinsic energy balance to macroscopic physical and chemical events that are analyzed from an energetic perspective. Outcomes are directly projected into practical applications and technological assessments covering energy consumption, thermal dissipation, and energy efficiency of a diverse set of applications in mixed phase synthesis, environmental remediation and materials chemistry.
Special interest is dedicated to the sonochemical production of hydrogen and its energetic dimensions. Due to the sensitive energy balance that governs this process, this is seen as a "green process" for the production of future energy carriers.
Provides a concise and detailed description of energy conversion and exchange within the single acoustic cavitation bubble and bubble population, accompanying physical and chemical effects Features a comprehensive approach that is supported by experiments and the modeling of energy concentration within the sonochemical reactor, jointly with energy dissipation and damping phenomenon Gives a clear definition of energy efficiency metrics of industrial sono-processes and their application to the main emergent industrial fields harnessing acoustic cavitation and sonochemistry, notably for the production of hydrogen

Modeling and Simulation of Sono-processes provides an overview of the mathematical modeling and numerical simulation as applied to sono-process-related phenomena, from the microscopic to the macroscopic scale, collecting information on this topic into one dedicated resource for the first time. It covers both fundamental and semi-empirical approaches and includes both physical and chemical effects.Single acoustic cavitation bubble and bubble population-related aspects are modeled mathematically, and numerical simulation procedures and examples are presented. In addition, the procedure involving semi-empirical modeling of sonochemical activity and sonochemical reactors is demonstrated and ultrasound assisted processes (hybrid processes) are demonstrated including several case studies.Modeling and Simulation of Sono-processes is written primarily for advanced graduates or early career researchers in physics, physical chemistry or mathematics who want to use mathematical modeling and numerical simulation of aspects related to acoustic cavitation bubble, bubble population, sonochemistry, sonochemical reactors and ultrasound-assisted processes.
Uses an evolutive approach to build understanding of scale (microscopic to macroscopic) of modelsClear hypotheses will be advanced with justifications and guidelines to select the appropriate assumptions according to the studied case and the objective of the modeling procedureResolution methods and simulation conditions are presented in each chapter to offer a reference for reproducible resultsSpecial attention is given to semi-empirical approaches to handle complex phenomenon accordingly in ultrasound-assisted processes, offering a reliable method to approach mathematically apparent effects of sonicationMetrics are presented for the assessment of the efficiency of sonication (alone or in hybrid processes) according to the studied case and the intended effect
