Conditions of the Formation of a Shock Wave under Cavitation in Hydrocarbon Solutions

We carried out a numerical study of the appearance of a shock wave during the collapse of a bubble in a hydrocarbon aqueous solution. The conditions for the appearance of a shock wave are obtained depending on the solute, the concentration of the solution, and the temperature. This work was carried out as part of the development of a method for producing diamonds upon cavitation in carbon-containing liquids.
