Secondly, at higher Re values (Re > 50), vorticity development around the trailing bubble causes it to deviate away from the inline configuration, thus preventing the occurrence of a head-on collision between the two bubbles. The deviation of the bubble was found occur if a certain critical velocity is exceeded by the trailing bubble. The value of the critical velocity was found to decrease with increasing Re values. Further, an increase in Eotvos number (Eo = ριgD²/σ) tends to increase the critical velocity, indicating that enhanced bubble deformability actually improves the path stability of the trailing bubble. The interaction of bubbles can therefore significantly influence the tendency of the bubbles to collide and coalesce.]]> Tue 23 Jan 2018 12:20:23 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42734 Thu 01 Sep 2022 13:39:26 AEST ]]>
