Abstract—Acoustic streaming in vibrating cylindrical cavities of different diameters under isothermal boundary conditions is numerically investigated. Two vibration frequencies are considered at various vibration amplitudes. The influence of increasing nonlinearity of the process on the structure of acoustic streaming is determined. The dynamics of an increase in the acoustic streaming velocity with an increase in the vibration amplitude is shown. The vibration amplitudes at which shock waves are formed in the regime of steady-state oscillations are revealed.

1. INTRODUCTION The oscillatory motion of the gas filling the vibrating cavity leads to the appearance of acoustic streaming, which is a time-average mass flow that has a stable vortex structure. There are the Schlichting streaming vortices and the Rayleigh streaming vortices, which have a certain direction of rotation. Schlichting streaming is a series of vortices in the boundary layer, in which the medium is transported near the cavity wall from vibrational velocity nodes to antinodes. The Rayleigh streaming vortices are in free stream, the direction of their rotation is opposite to the direction of rotation of the Schlichting streaming vortices [1]. An increase in the vibrational effect on the cavity can lead to distortion of the acoustic streaming vortices, as well as affect the period average temperature, pressure, and density [2–9]. The thermal boundary conditions [6, 10–13] and the ratio of the cavity radius to the thickness of the acoustic boundary layer [14] have a significant effect on the acoustic streaming structure. In [15–17], the acoustic streaming structure in cavities of different diameters at small vibration amplitude was revealed. In the present paper, acoustic streaming in cylindrical cavities at isothermal boundary conditions is studied in the case of increasing nonlinearity of the process, which occurs due to an increase in the amplitude of cavity vibration. Vibration frequency and cavity radius vary. * **
