Large-eddy simulation of a buoyant plume in uniform and stably stratified environments

BJ Devenish, GG Rooney, DJ Thomson - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2010 - cambridge.org
We consider large-eddy simulation (LES) of buoyant plumes in uniform and stably stratified
environments. We show that in the former case the results agree well with the simple plume …

Mean velocity, spreading and entrainment characteristics of weak bubble plumes in unstratified and stationary water

B Wang, CCK Lai, SA Socolofsky - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2019 - cambridge.org
In this paper we present an experimental and theoretical study of weak bubble plumes in
unstratified and stationary water. We define a weak bubble plume as one that spreads …
