Influence of population and radius of cavity bubbles on size of sodium chloride crystals in ultrasound ablation

Crystal size distribution as a function of power in ultrasound ablation is simulated by using a theoretical method based on population and radius of bubbles. In this method, population and radius of bubbles are related to ultrasound power and Debye temperature of crystals. The best power for production of crystals with uniform size is obtained from the theory. In addition, it is shown that the population of bubbles effects the radius of the productions and the radius of bubbles influences the population of products. Results from the theory are supported by experimental results.

► Crystal size distribution as a function of ultrasound power is simulated.
► Debye temperature is a key factor to control size of produced crystals.
► For production of sodium chloride uniform crystals in water, 52 W is the best power.
► Population of bubbles effects on radius of productions.
► Radius of bubbles influences on population of products.
