Abstract

A fully Lagrangian compressible numerical framework for the simulation of underwater implosion of a large air bubble is presented. Both air and water are considered compressible and the [...]

Abstract

Re-using depleted fields (and platforms and wells) offers advantages over developing storage projects in saline formations. However, with reservoir pressures after production sometimes below 20 bar, there can be a large pressure difference between the reservoir and the transport pipeline [...]

Abstract

Air lubrication systems for underwater applications have gained great popularity in recent years. Large bubbles, around We ≥ 100, show a large area of drag reduction than a small and microbubble, especially for large scale flow problems such as ship surface. However, it is hard [...]
