The Kudryashov–Sinelshchikov equation (KSE) is crucial in modeling pressure waves in liquids containing gas bubbles, capturing both nonlinear wave phenomena and dispersion effects. This article applies the reproducing kernel Hilbert space method (RKHSM) to find a numerical solution for the time-fractional KSE. We develop a numerical solution to the KSE using the RKHSM, which offers an efficient and accurate approach for solving nonlinear partial differential equations due to its smoothness and orthogonality properties. The key components of this method include the reproducing kernel (RK) theory, important Hilbert spaces, normal basis, orthogonalization, and homogenization. We construct an appropriate RK and derive an iterative solution that converges rapidly to the exact solution. The effectiveness of this approach is demonstrated through numerical simulations in which we analyze the behavior of pressure waves and compare the results with existing analytical and numerical solutions. The RKHSM consistently demonstrates highly accurate, rapid convergence, and remarkable stability across a wide range of problems. Thus, the RKHSM is a promising tool for studying wave propagation in bubbly liquids.
