State Bernoulli's expression for the pressure in an unsteady potential flow with conservative force −∇χ.
A spherical bubble in an incompressible liquid of density ρ has radius R(t). If the pressure far from the bubble is p∞ and inside the bubble is pb, show that
pb−p∞=ρ(23R˙2+RR¨)
Calculate the kinetic energy K(t) in the flow outside the bubble, and hence show that
K˙=(pb−p∞)V˙
where V(t) is the volume of the bubble.
If pb(t)=p∞V0/V, show that
K=K0+p∞(V0lnV0V−V+V0)
where K=K0 when V=V0.
