@inproceedings{9783, abstract = {{To optimize the ultrasound irradiation for cavitation based ultrasound applications like sonochemistry or ultrasound cleaning, the correlation between cavitation intensity and the resulting effect on the process is of interest. Furthermore, changing conditions like temperature and pressure result in varying acoustic properties of the liquid. That might necessitate an adaption of the ultrasound irradiation. To detect such changes during operation, process monitoring is desired. Labor intensive processes, that might be carried out for several hours, also require process monitoring to increase their reliability by detection of changes or malfunctions during operation. In some applications cavitation detection and monitoring can be achieved by the application of sensors in the sound field. Though the application of sensors is possible, this necessitates modifications on the system and the sensor might disturb the sound field. In other applications harsh, process conditions prohibit the application of sensors in the sound field. Therefore alternative techniques for cavitation detection and monitoring are desired. The applicability of an external microphone and a self-sensing ultrasound transducer for cavitation detection were experimentally investigated. Both methods were found to be suitable and easily applicable.}}, author = {{Bornmann, Peter and Hemsel, Tobias and Sextro, Walter and Maeda, Takafumi and Morita, Takeshi}}, booktitle = {{Ultrasonics Symposium (IUS), 2012 IEEE International}}, issn = {{1948-5719}}, keywords = {{cavitation, chemical reactors, microphones, process monitoring, reliability, ultrasonic applications, ultrasonic waves, acoustic properties, cavitation based ultrasound applications, cavitation intensity, change detection reliability, external microphone, malfunction detection reliability, nonperturbing cavitation detection, nonperturbing cavitation monitoring, process monitoring, self-sensing ultrasound transducer, sonochemical reactors, sonochemistry, ultrasound cleaning, ultrasound irradiation, Acoustics, Liquids, Monitoring, Sensors, Sonar equipment, Transducers, Ultrasonic imaging}}, pages = {{1141--1144}}, title = {{{Non-perturbing cavitation detection / monitoring in sonochemical reactors}}}, doi = {{10.1109/ULTSYM.2012.0284}}, year = {{2012}}, } @inproceedings{9785, abstract = {{Hydrothermal method enables to synthesize high quality piezoelectric materials.
