[HTML][HTML] A LES-based Eulerian–Lagrangian approach to predict the dynamics of bubble plumes

B Fraga, T Stoesser, CCK Lai, SA Socolofsky - Ocean modelling, 2016 - Elsevier
Abstract An approach for Eulerian–Lagrangian large-eddy simulation of bubble plume
dynamics is presented and its performance evaluated. The main numerical novelties consist …

Influence of bubble size, diffuser width, and flow rate on the integral behavior of bubble plumes

B Fraga, T Stoesser - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
A large‐eddy simulation based Eulerian‐Lagrangian model is employed to quantify the
impact of bubble size, diffuser diameter, and gas flow rate on integral properties of bubble …

The turbulent kinetic energy budget in a bubble plume

CCK Lai, SA Socolofsky - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2019 - cambridge.org
We present the turbulent kinetic energy (tke) budget of a dilute bubble plume in its
asymptotic state. The budget is derived from an experimental dataset of bubble plumes …

Budgets of turbulent kinetic energy, Reynolds stresses, and dissipation in a turbulent round jet discharged into a stagnant ambient

CCK Lai, SA Socolofsky - Environmental Fluid Mechanics, 2019 - Springer
This paper presents a set of stereoscopic particle image velocimetry (SPIV) measurements
of a turbulent round water jet (jet exit Reynolds number Re= 2679 R e= 2679 and turbulent …

Characteristics of mean flow and turbulence in bubble-in-chain induced flows

B Wang, SA Socolofsky - Physical Review Fluids, 2019 - APS
This paper presents the experimental results from an air bubble-in-chain induced flow at
different bubble release frequencies, resulting in a range of 1510–2318 for the Reynolds …

Large-eddy simulations of multi-phase plumes in crossflow and stratified flow

E Mitrou - 2020 - orca.cardiff.ac.uk
The mixing and transport properties of bubble plumes make them an interesting and unique
component of environmental and engineering applications, such as destratification and …
