Non-stationary thermal self-action of a periodic or impulse acoustic beam containing shock fronts in a thermoconducting Newtonian fluid is studied. Self-focusing of a saw-tooth periodic and impulse sound is considered, as well as that of a solitary shock wave which propagates with the linear sound speed. The governing equations of the beam radius are derived. Numerical simulations reveal that the thermal conductivity weakens the thermal self-action of the acoustic beam.
Thermal self-action of an acoustic beam with one discontinuity or several shock fronts is studied in a Newtonian fluid. The stationary self-action of a single sawtooth wave with discontinuity (or some integer number of these waves), symmetric or asymmetric, is considered in the cases of self-focusing and self-defocusing media. The results are compared with the non-stationary thermal self-action of the periodic sound. Thermal self-action of a single shock wave which propagates with the various speeds is considered.
The modern theory concerning to the heating cased by powerful sound source is presented. In contrast to the well-known approach allowing to calculate slowly varying heating due to periodic ultrasound, any acoustic sources may be treated. Subtle temporal structure of thermal lens forming may be traced. Formulae governing the forming of the thermal lens by arbitrary (including non-periodic) source are presented. The process is illustrated by some figures.
