Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 models - Clear hypotheses will be advanced with justifications and guidelines to select the appropriate assumptions according to the studied case and the objective of the modeling procedure - Resolution methods and simulation conditions are presented in each chapter to offer a reference for reproducible results - Special 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 sonication - Metrics are presented for the assessment of the efficiency of sonication (alone or in hybrid processes) according to the studied case and the intended effect
