A STUDY OF TIME INTEGRATION SCHEMES FOR MODELLING FREE SURFACE FLOWS0.2experimental data<strong>numerical</strong> resultsD00 0.6Figure 14. De<strong>for</strong>mation curve <strong>for</strong> Taylor’s problem: =0:2, =27:3.Ca6.3. Numerical validation: buoyancy-driven rising bubblesThe velocity and de<strong>for</strong>mation <strong>of</strong> a single rising bubble due to buoyancy will rst be studied.This test is based on <strong>the</strong> results <strong>of</strong> Sussman and Smereka [26]. Let us consider a bubble<strong>of</strong> non-dimensional radius ã = 1, which is initially lying at rest in ano<strong>the</strong>r uid, in ageometry <strong>of</strong> dimensions [−3; 3] × [0; 12]. This system is submitted to a constant body <strong>for</strong>ceg =(0; −g), where g is <strong>the</strong> gravitational acceleration. Since <strong>the</strong> uids have a density ratio<strong>of</strong> = 1 = 2 =0:0011 (<strong>the</strong> uid <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> bubble is lighter), buoyancy generates a ow whichmakes <strong>the</strong> bubble rise. The viscosity ratio <strong>for</strong> this test is given by = 1 = 2 =0:0085.For this problem, <strong>the</strong> Navier–Stokes equations with <strong>the</strong> CSF model (5) arenon-dimensionalized as1St˜@ũ@˜t +˜(ũ · ˜∇)ũ = 1 Re ˜∇ · ˜ + 1 Fr ˜ ˜g + 1 We ˜ ˜∇F (18)where, in our case, <strong>the</strong> Reynolds number is given by<strong>the</strong> Froude number is dened asRe = au 0 2 2=9:8Fr = u2 0ag =0:76Copyright ? 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.Int.
