Two different three-dimensional reconstruction techniques for the shape of gas bubbles flowing in a liquid are presented. The first technique is based on the Dynamic Generalized Hough Transform Algorithm, and the second on the Metaball Model. These techniques are suitable for analysis of turbulent two-phase bubbly flows. Both techniques require at least two views of the bubble intended for three-dimensional reconstruction, and can be used in either stereoscopic or orthogonal camera setups. Once the reconstruction is accomplished, the bubble images can be accurately removed from the images acquired during Particle Image Velocimtery or Shadow Image Velocimetry measurements. After removing the bubble images from PIV images, a typical analysis of the liquid phase can be performed. This improves the accuracy of the statistical analysis of the parameters of each phase.

Two different techniques, the Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and the Shadow-Image Velocimetry (SIV) techniques have been used to capture detailed two-phase bubbly flow experimental data. The PIV has provided a two-dimensional velocity field of the liquid phase for analysis of the continuous phase. The SIV has utilized to reconstruct the bubble shape and velocity of the dispersed phase in three-dimensions.

An experimental study on flow around two similarly-sized, adjacent air bubbles confined in a 1000 mm vertical, square channel (100 × 100 mm2) with downward flow of water was conducted. The bubbles were D = 11.7 mm in major diameter, ellipsoidal in shape (0.4 ml volume) and 12 mm apart. The Reynolds and Eo¨tvo¨s numbers were 1950 < ReD < 2250, 11 < Eo < 11.5 such that the bubbles oscillated. Velocity measurements were taken using Digital Particle Image Velocimetry, Complemented by Laser Induced Fluorescence. Simultaneously, a second CCD camera recorded the shadow image of the bubble pair’s motions. Visualization revealed that the bubbles move out of phase and do not collide nor coalesce. The velocity data revealed the dynamic interaction of two wake-flow velocity fields with a jet-like flow in-between. From the DPIV data, estimates of the vorticity, Reynolds-stress and turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) distributions confirmed the spatio-temporal nature of the flow. Details will be presented.

Champagne glasses are subjected to complex ascending bubble-driven flow patterns, which are believed to enhance the release of volatile organic compounds in the headspace above the glasses. Based on the Eulerian–Lagrangian approach, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) was used in order to examine how a column of ascending bubbles nucleated at the bottom of a classical champagne glass can drive self-organized flow patterns in the champagne bulk and at the air/champagne interface. Firstly, results from two-dimensional (2D) axisymmetric simulations were compared with a set of experimental data conducted through particle image velocimetry (PIV). Secondly, a three-dimensional (3D) model was developed by using the conventional volume-of-fluid (VOF) multiphase method to resolve the interface between the mixture’s phases (wine–air). In complete accordance with several experimental observations conducted through laser tomography and PIV techniques, CFD revealed a very complex flow composed of surface eddies interacting with a toroidal flow that develops around the ascending bubble column.
