摘要

A theoretical model which couples the oscillation of cavitation bubbles with the equation of an acoustic wave is utilized to describe the sound fields in double-layer liquids,which can be used to realize the asymmetric transmission of acoustic waves.Numerical simulations show that the asymmetry is related to the properties of the host liquids and the input acoustic wave.Asymmetry can be enhanced if the maximum number density or the ambient radius of the cavitation bubbles in the low cavitation threshold liquid increases.Moreover,the direction of rectification will be reversed if the amplitude of the input acoustic wave becomes high enough.
