Numerical Benchmarking for 3D Multiphase Flow: New Results for a Rising Bubble

Abstract

Based on the benchmark results in [1] for a 2D rising bubble, we present the extension towards 3D providing test cases with corresponding reference results, following the suggestions in [2]. Additionally, we include also an axisymmetric configuration which allows 2.5D simulations and which provides further possibilities for validation and evaluation of numerical multiphase flow components and software tools in 3D.
