Abstract

AbstractThe movement of gas bubbles in a Newtonian liquid under centrifugal forces was considered. Taking into account wall effects and the increase of bubble diameter during the movement caused by pressure decrease, equations for the bubble movement time in the case of entirely free and immobile bubble surface were derived. Experiments on centrifuging air bubbles showed that in the centrifuge the bubble retained a free surface even at much smaller diameters than under gravity forces. A dimensionless bubble diameter was defined and its critical value above which bubbles behaved as free ones was evaluated.
