Energy spectra of buoyancy-driven bubbly flow in a vertical Hele-Shaw cell

We present direct numerical simulations (DNS) study of confined buoyancy-driven bubbly flows in a Hele-Shaw setup. We investigate the spectral properties of the flow and make comparisons with experiments. The energy spectrum obtained from the gap-averaged velocity field shows E(k) ∼ k for k <...
