Ultrasonic cleaning machines are something that everyone has heard of. While marveling at their powerful functions, has anyone ever delved into the physical principles behind their operation?
The principle of acceleration: The acceleration generated by the push of liquid particles is used to precisely clean dirt by the impact of the acceleration of liquid particles under the ultrasonic effect on the particles.
The principle of cavitation: Cavitation is the transmission of ultrasonic waves into a liquid in a high-frequency alternating manner of compressive and compressive forces more than 20,000 times per second. Under the effect of depressurization, the phenomenon of vacuum bubble clusters is generated in the liquid. When subjected to compressive force, the vacuum bubble clusters are crushed under pressure, generating a powerful impact force, thereby peeling off the dirt on the surface of the object to be cleaned, thus achieving the purpose of precise cleaning.
The direct flow effect: The phenomenon where ultrasonic waves flow along the direction of sound propagation in a liquid is called direct flow. Through this direct flow, the micro-oil dirt on the surface of the object to be cleaned is stirred, and the cleaning liquid on the surface of the dirt also generates convection. The dissolved liquid that dissolves the dirt mixes with the new liquid, accelerating the dissolution rate and playing a significant role in the transportation of the dirt.
The three principles listed above are all the reasons why the ultrasonic cleaner can have such a great effect.
