摘要:
Breakup of a bubble, rising under gravity in a turbulent flow, is analyzed. A model developed represents the critical Weber number of a bubble, indicating bubble breakup conditions, as a function of deformation caused by bubble rising. An ellipsoidal bubble shape is assumed. A simplified model of bubble deformation allows to obtain an analytical expression for the critical Weber number. An equation for the sepcific breakup rate of a rising bubble is also suggested and, then, validated against experimental data. The model developed is incorporated into the developer's version of the adaptive multiple size-group (A-MuSiG) method of the Simcenter STAR-CCM+ (R) CFD code. A good agreement of computed data vs. experimental results is demonstrated for a bubbly flow in a horizontal pipe without tuning any adjustable parameters. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
