Abstract
In this paper, one of the applications of the InterSection Marker (ISM) method is presented. The ISM method - a hybrid Lagrangian–Eulerian front-tracking algorithm specifically crafted for multi-phase flow simulation, was used to track an air bubble rising in quiescent water under the influence of buoyancy and surface tension forces. Computed bubble terminal velocity and bubble shape of 1 mm size bubble are discussed. The results compared well against the past works, and has laid foundation for the future application of the ISM method in more complex multiphase flow simulation. © The Authors.
