Flow of two consecutive Taylor bubbles through a vertical column of stagnant liquid-A CFD study about the influence of the leading bubble on the hydrodynamics of the trailing one

A detailed numerical study on the interaction between two consecutive Taylor bubbles rising through vertical columns of stagnant Newtonian liquids is reported in this work. The CFD method used is based on the VOF technique implemented in the commercial package ANSYS FLUENT. Simulations were made for...
