The primary Bjerknes force is responsible for the quick translational motion of radially oscillating bubbles in a sound field. The problem is classical in the case of small-amplitude oscillations, for which an analytical expression of the force can be easily obtained, and predicts attraction of sub-resonant bubbles by pressure antinodes. But for high-amplitude sound fields the bubbles undergo l...

An experimental study has been carried out to characterize bubble formation, growth, and detachment mechanisms in a stagnant liquid column. Both bubble frequency and bubble detachment size were measured in different gas flow rates, injector diameters and orientations, submergence height, and liquid properties. Experiments were performed for air injection flow rate ranges between 200 mlph and 12...

in this research, the effect of bubble surface area flux, sb, and particle size on flotation rate constant, k, of pyrite (fes2) particles was studied using bubble-particle interactions. the bubble-particle collision, attachment and detachment efficiencies were calculated under different flow regimes. the k increased with increase in the collision efficiency and decrease in the detachment effici...

We present and analyse a model for the spherical pulsations and translational motions of a pair of interacting gas bubbles in an incompressible liquid. The model is derived rigorously in the context of potential flow theory and contains all terms up to and including fourth order in the inverse separation distance between the bubbles. We use this model to study the cases of both weak and moderat...

The buoyancy-driven motion of two identical gas bubbles released in line a liquid at rest is examined with the help highly resolved simulations, focusing on moderately inertial regimes which path an isolated bubble vertical. Assuming first axisymmetric evolution, equilibrium configurations pair are determined as function buoyancy-to-viscous and buoyancy-to-capillary force ratios define Galilei ...
