The dynamics of a bubble near a corner formed by two flat rigid boundaries (walls), is studied experimentally using a spark-generated bubble. The expansion, collapse, rebound, re-collapse and migration of the bubble, along with jetting and protrusion, are captured using a high-speed camera. Our experimental observations reveal the behaviour of the bubble in terms of the corner angle and the dimensionless standoff distances to the near and far walls in terms of the maximum bubble radius. The bubble remains approximately spherical during expansion except for its surface becoming flattened when in close proximity to a wall. When a bubble is initiated at the bisector of the two walls, the bubble becomes oblate along the bisector during the late stages of collapse. A jet forms towards the end of collapse, pointing to the corner. The closer the bubble to the two walls, the more oblate along the bisector the bubble becomes, and the wider the jet. A bubble initiated near one of the two walls is mainly influenced by the nearer wall. The jet formed is pointing to the near wall but inclined towards the corner. After the jet penetrates through the bubble surface, the bubble becomes a bubble ring, and a bubble protrusion forms following the jet. The bubble ring collapses and subsequently disappears, while the protrusion firstly expands, and then collapses and migrates to the corner.

The chemical and physical characteristics of pulsed electrical discharge within gas bubbles immersed in an aqueous solution were investigated using a reactor with long protrusion length high voltage needle electrodes. Argon gas was introduced at the base of the needle electrode causing gas bubbles to flow upwards in contact with the needle. The effects of needle protrusion length were evaluated by using 2, 4, and 6 cm length needles under a wide range of power input (3–78 W). No significant differences in chemical or electrical characteristics were found among the different protrusion lengths. H2 and H2O2 generation rates were proportional to input power and the energy yield efficiency for these species was not affected dramatically by input power. The results of discharge within bubbles in aqueous solution were also compared with those for direct liquid phase discharge and gas phase discharge above the liquid surface.
