A water model and numerical study of the spout height in a gas-stirred vessel
Abstract
The height and width of spouts in a water model of a gas-stirred ladle were measured photographically. The shapes were found to be Gaussian, and correlations were developed for the height and width. To mathematically model the free surface effects, a novel combined staggered-grid and volume-of-fluid computational code was developed. It was tested successfully against an established code in the “broken dam” validation test. The new free surface …
