| Abstract: | The stagnant Taylor bubble in vertical isothermal turbulent counter-current flow was analyzed using 2D shadowgraphy experiments and two distinct high-fidelity numerical simulations. One simulation employed the geometrical VOF interface tracking method within the OpenFOAM code, while the other utilized the explicit front tracking method of the TrioCFD code. Interface recognition algorithms were applied to the photographs and compared with the results of 3D simulations performed with LES and pseudo-DNS accuracy in OpenFOAM and TrioCFD, respectively. The measured Taylor bubbles exhibited an asymmetric bullet-train shape and a specific speed, which were compared with the predictions of both numerical approaches. Reproducing the experiment proved challenging for both otherwise well-established methods frequently used in interface tracking simulations of two-phase flows. Grid resolution and subgrid turbulent models, known for their success in single-phase turbulence, were less accurate near the water–air interface. Additional experimental parameters compared with simulations were related to the dynamics of tiny disturbance waves with amplitudes ranging from 10 to 100 µm along the interface of the Taylor bubbles. The speed and spectra of the surface disturbance waves were reproduced numerically with moderate success despite detailed grid refinement in the relevant region of the computational domain. |
