Description
Summary:This paper is concerned with a numerical study on evolution of a deformed bubble and propagation of the fields around the bubble. The model uses a numerical procedure with the directpredictor method and the alternating dependent variables ADV skill developed by Li and Yan. The aim of this paper is to study the characteristics of interfacial transport for a deformed inviscid bubble rising in a quiescent hot or bisolution liquid. The effects of the bubble deformation on temperature and concentration fields are calculated and simulated. The results demonstrate that the current numerical procedure is effective for solving such unsteady deformation problems of bubble accompanied with heat and mass transfer.
