Investigating the possibility of Sonofusion in Deuterated acetone
In this article, energetic implosion of a single vapor bubble induced by a standing acoustic wave is theoretically studied and the Sonoluminescing bubble parameters involved in Sonofusion in Deuterated acetone (C3D6O) are investigated. Parameters such as radius, wall velocity, interior temperature and pressure of the bubble influenced by various driving pressure amplitudes in Deuterated acetone at similar to 0 degrees C are investigated. Based on the obtained results, the possibility of thermonuclear fusion inside imploding cavitation bubbles is discussed. The interior pressure of C3D6O vapor bubbles at the collapse time is extremely high and the increase of the pressure amplitude increases the pressure inside the bubble. Our findings reveal that the maximum temperature inside acoustic-induced cavitation bubble in Deuterated acetone increases with the acoustic pressure amplitude and it is much higher than the maximum temperature inside acoustic induced cavitation bubbles in liquids such as water and acids. Consequently, the calculated temperature at the pressure amplitude of 7.23 bar was about 3.7 x 10(5) K and it is predicted that at the reported experimental condition, the case of a bubble cluster subjected to the pressure amplitude of about 15 bar, the temperature inside the bubble reaches to 1.2 x 10(6) K.
