From: Coalescence of two growing bubbles in a Hele–Shaw cell

Typical growth of a single bubble during decompression (\(dp/dt=-1.5 \ \mathrm{kPa/s}\), \(\eta =10 \ \mathrm{Pa \cdot s}\), \(D=0.3 \ \mathrm{mm}\)). (a) Pressure change. The dashed blue line indicates the decompression rate of \(dp/dt=-1.5 \ \mathrm{kPa/s}\). (b) Bubble radius. The solid black line indicates the experimental result. The solid blue line indicates the model result given by Eq. (S9) in the supplementary information. Dashed and dotted blue lines indicate the model results considering only expansion (first term on the right-hand side of Eq. S9) and only diffusion of dissolved air (second term on the right-hand side of Eq. S9), respectively.
