Abstract
Axisymmetric flow fields containing a rising bubble under a vertical unifor m magnetic field are simulated by a front capturing method. In the case of a weak magnetic field, dynamic pressure makes bubbles oblate, while in the case of a strong magnetic field, magnetic pressure makes bubbles prolate. A map of the shape of bubbles is obtained. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. Al l rights reserved.
