Benchmark computations of diffuse interface models for two‐dimensional bubble dynamics

SUMMARY Diffuse interface models for incompressible two-phaseflow with large density ratios are tested on benchmark configurations for a two-dimensional bubble rising in liquid columns. The benchmark quantities circularity, center of mass, and mean rise velocity are compared with reference solutions from Hysing et al. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
