Abstract :
Taking full account of the liquid viscosity, surface tension and other factors, a detailed numerical simulation using VOF method was carried out to study the dynamic behavior of bubbles in still water, and obtained the rising path, deformation process and speed changes. The numerical results were compared with experimental data, and gained good result. It shows the results of this study can provide a reference for bubble simulation.
