Abstract:
A kinetic approach based on the approximate calculation of the fluid flow potential and formulation of Hamilton’s equations for generalized coordinates and momenta of bubbles is employed to describe processes of collective interaction of gas bubbles moving in an inviscid incompressible fluid. Kinetic equations governing the evolution of the distribution function of bubbles are derived. These equations are similar to Vlasov equations.
