Hydrodynamics of single bubble rising through water column using volume of fluid (VOF) method
The importance of air bubble dynamics in liquid is in some phenomena like chemical and biochemical processes in refinery units. The 2D Volume of Fluid (VOF) method together with the CFD technique were employed for simulating. The dynamic meshing technique is used to simulate the hydrodynamics of rising air bubble in liquid water column via the User ...

A Volume of Fluid (VOF) Method for the Simulation of Metallurgical Flows
A finite difference numerical method, based on the VOF approach for tracking interface distortions, is presented. It is capable of accurately simulating the fluid flow of multiple immiscible fluids for metallurgical applications. This volume tracking method is based on piecewise linear reconstructions of interfaces, density distributions based on a ...
