Abstarct: In this study, by taking the advantages of experimental methods, Investigations on the effects of corrosion induced by single-bubble collapse on the surface of a solid object located at a certain distance from the bubble center are conducted. Then, using the corrosion patterns created on the sample surface, the dynamic behavior of the bubble is also investigated and finally an analytical model is presented. Experimental analysis is performed by a produced device. The test apparatus generates a single cavitation bubble with a specified radius using an electric spark between the two electrodes. This bubble is very unstable and rapidly collapses. The bubble collapse phase begins with the creation of a liquid jet that moves from the top of the bubble to the lower wall after passing the bubble diameter. The solid surface sample is composed of 10 μm pure aluminum labeling laxyer on a transparent rigid surface. After the bubble collapses, holes are created on the surface of the specimen, which is then analyzed by a by photographic analysis software. Experiments were performed for 8 non-dimensional distances from the bubble center to the solid surface. And for each specified interval, each experiment was repeated eight times to avoid unintended errors in the experiment. In the first chapter of the project, an introduction to the phenomenon of cavitation is presented and in addition to its destructive aspects, cavitation applications are also mentioned. The second chapter reviews the work done in the past. Due to the complexity of the bubble collapse process, most research has focused on the growth and dynamics of single bubbles, and less attention has been paid to the detailed study of corrosion caused by single bubble collapse. The third chapter is devoted to experimental analysis. In this chapter, the process of the experiments is described in detail and the parameters affecting the corrosion are investigated. Chapter 4 deals with the analysis of the results of experiments. Photo analysis software tools are described in this chapter and how to use them. At the end of the fourth chapter, a model of corrosion is presented. The proposed model is obtained by analytical method and the cavitation bubble is modeled with a number of micro jets with the same destructive power. Finally, Chapter 5 concludes and makes suggestions. The results of this study show that the corrosion pattern is strongly dependent on the non-dimensional distance of the bubble center to the surface. There are two main reasons for the corrosion: one impact of cavitation bubble on surface and the other of high speed liquid jet impact on sample surface. Depending on the distance from the bubble to the level of contribution, each of the above will be different. At non-dimensional distances less than 0.5 liquid jet impacts are the major contributors to the corrosion, but at non-dimensional distances greater than 1 all corrosion caused by the cavitation bubble collides with the surface. Also, the greatest amount of degradation occurs in the area of 1.2≤γ≤1.4 and the widest level of degradation occurs in γ≤0.5.
