  2. Ultrasonic cleaning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonic_cleaning

    Ultrasonic cleaning. Ultrasonic cleaning is a process that uses ultrasound (usually from 20 to 40 kHz) to agitate a fluid, with a cleaning effect. Ultrasonic cleaners come in a variety of sizes, from small desktop units with an internal volume of less than 0.5 litres (0.13 US gal), to large industrial units with volumes approaching 1,000 litres ...

  3. Ultrasound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasound

    An ultrasonic examination. Ultrasound is sound with frequencies greater than 20 kilohertz. [1] This frequency is the approximate upper audible limit of human hearing in healthy young adults. The physical principles of acoustic waves apply to any frequency range, including ultrasound. Ultrasonic devices operate with frequencies from 20 kHz up to ...

  4. Ultrasonic antifouling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonic_antifouling

    Ultrasonic antifouling is a technology that uses high frequency sound ( ultrasound) to prevent or reduce biofouling on underwater structures, surfaces, and medium. Ultrasound is just high frequency sound (which humans can not hear). Ultrasound has the same physical properties as human-audible sound.

  5. Therapeutic ultrasound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Therapeutic_ultrasound

    Non thermal effects are from cavitation, microstreaming and acoustic streaming. Cavitational effects result from the vibration of the tissue causing microscopic bubbles to form, which transmit the vibrations in a way that directly stimulates cell membranes. This physical stimulation appears to enhance the cell-repair effects of the inflammatory ...

  6. Ultrasonic cavitation device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonic_cavitation_device

    Ultrasonic cavitation device is a surgical device using low frequency ultrasound energy to dissect or fragment tissues with low fiber content. It is basically an ultrasound probe (acoustic vibrator) combined with an aspirator device ( suction ). [1] It is mainly used for tissues with high water content and low fiber content, like noncirrhotic ...

  7. Cavitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavitation

    Ultrasonic cavitation inception will occur when the acceleration of the ultrasound source is enough to produce the needed pressure drop. This pressure drop depends on the value of the acceleration and the size of the affected volume by the pressure wave. The dimensionless number that predicts ultrasonic cavitation is the Garcia-Atance number.
