Popis: In engineering problems associated with acoustic wave propagation in a liquid, cavitation onset could be an adverse phenomenon, or, conversely, a required process. In both cases, knowledge of the ultrasonic parameters that lead to cavitation onset under given external conditions is relevant and necessary for solving both fundamental and practical problems. The present work proposes experimental results of studying the threshold of acoustic cavitation, which was implemented at different ultrasound frequencies with a change in external pressure, power of transducer and temperature of the liquid. The experiments were carried out for sunflower oil. The test findings demonstrated how the cavitation threshold changes with varying the power of ultrasound exposure in time. In addition, the effect of external pressure fluctuations on cavitation onset was investigated. The obtained results contribute to the understanding of cavitation processes and could be necessary for verification of theoretical models.
