Abstract
A model is developed to calculate the multi-phase flow produced by the bubbling of air into water, Two turbulence models are employed to rep resent the turbulence field namely, the k-epsilon model and an anisotr opic eddy viscosity (algebraic stress) model. The predicted mean flow and turbulence parameters compare well with the experimental data.
