On the interaction between bubbles and the free surface with high density ratio 3D lattice Boltzmann method

ABSTRACT: The bubbles rise up and burst at the free surface is a complex two-phase process. A free energy lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) model is adopted in this paper to study this phenomenon. The interface capturing technique [Zheng et al., 2006] is used to deal with the high density ratio problem...
