Bubble behaviors in solid-liquid and liquid-liquid mixtures are analyzed by combining a viewpoint of multiphase flow with a conventional theoretical method of a single spherical bubble in liquid. A detailed model with a first order Mach number has been introduced and calculated numerically for the solid-liquid and liquid-liquid mixtures, respectively. The validity of the model is ascertained by comparing the bubble collapsing pressure with the previously reported measured data of cavitation erosion in liquid-liquid mixtures and a solid-liquid mixture. The numerical result shows that the bubble c6ollapse pressure decreases with increasing a solid phase.
