Modelling ultrasonic cavitation

Hello
I am interested in modelling ultrasonic cavitation using COMSOL. The objective is to model the pressure distribution in a liquid caused due to the vibration of a horn immersed in the liquid and vibrating at a specific frequency.
The horn is vibrated at a specific frequency by a PZT crystal mounted on one end. On the other end of the horn (which is dipped in the liquid) is a specimen. As the horn vibrated the liquid will cavitate and cause cavitation erosion at the horn tip where the specimen is mounted.

I want to model the horn (its geometry is known) which is vibrating in a known liquid at a given frequency and be able to estimate the pressures in the liquid (max, min, and collapse pressure)

Will somebody help me to model this ? Or point out some examples in this area.

TIA

regards
sree
