Analysis of Interaction and Flow Pattern of Multiple Bubbles in Shear-Thinning Viscoelastic Fluids

A numerical study was conducted on the interaction of bubbles with different diameters and arrangements in shear-thinning viscoelastic fluids using OpenFOAM. The Volume of Fluid (VOF) method combined with the surface tension model was used to track the gas–liquid interface, and the rheological prope...
