DETAILS :

• Two-dimensional steady flow.
• Euler-Euler technique.

NOTES :

• Gas is injected into a partially filled liquid tank. The position of gas injection is not aligned with the tank's center line.
• Bouyancy forces lift the gas bubbles towards the liquid surface.
• Friction causes an interaction between gas, liquid and tank's walls.
• The free surface is deformed.

1. Geometry and boundary conditions.
2. Air concentration for a gas flow rate of 1 l/min
3. Air concentration for a gas flow rate of 8 l/min
4. Air concentration for a gas flow rate of 16 l/min
5. Air concentration for a gas flow rate of 32 l/min
