Influence of drag closures and inlet conditions on bubble dynamics and flow behavior inside a bubble column

In this paper, the hydrodynamics of a bubble column is investigated numerically using the discrete bubble model, which tracks the dispersed bubbles individually in a liquid column. The discrete bubble model is combined with the volume of fluid approach to account for a proper free surface boundary c...
