The phase distribution and the effect of bubbles on turbulence of liquid were investigated using the Euler-Lagrange two-way method. The liquid-phase velocity field was solved with the direct numerical simulation(DNS)in the Euler frame of reference
and the bubble motion track was calculated by the Newtonian motion equations considering interaction forces including drag force
shear lift force
inertia force
etc.
in the Lagrange fame of reference. The coupling between phases was realized by regarding the interphase forces as momentum source terms of the continuous phase.The result indicates that the drag force
the buoyant force
the shear lift force
and the virtual mass force have greater effect on the motion of bubbles
and the majority of bubbles accumulate near the walls. Compared with the single liquid phase
the addition of bubbles reduces the streamwise mean velocity
turbulent intensity
and the Reynolds stress of the liquid phase. In addition
the injection of bubbles modifies the turbulent frictional coefficient model.
