Figure 3: Agreement and contrast between present and previous results for different flow regimes.
From: Dynamics of an initially spherical bubble rising in quiescent liquid
Comparison between the onset of asymmetric bubble motion obtained in the numerical stability analysis of Cano-Lozano et al.27 (solid black line), and the present boundary between regions I and II. Also given in this figure are five different conditions (diamond symbols) studied by Baltussen et al.12 The dynamics they obtain are as follows: A—Spherical, B—Ellipsoidal, C—Boundary between skirted and ellipsoidal, D—Wobbling and E—Peripheral breakup. The correspondence between present results and 12 is excellent. Grace et al. 34 obtained spherical bubbles below the solid blue line shown.
