Evaluation of finite rate homogenous mixture model in cavitation bubble collapse

The objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of finite rate homogeneous mixture models in three key aspects: (a) the ability of the model to predict the dynamics of resolved small scale vapor regions, (b) the importance of finite rate mass transfer and (c) the impact of assuming 2D flow as is done in RANS simulations with a statistically homogeneous direction. We consider a bubble collapse problem to evaluate all these effects.
