Abstract

The study of bubbly liquid dynamics in microchannels of unconventional shapes is of great importance for different fields of science and industry. This work investigates the dynamics of the incompressible single bubbles in the slow periodic flow of viscous liquid in a triangular channel with a variable pressure gradient. The numerical approach used in this research is based on the boundary element method (BEM). This method is widely used for solving three-dimensional problems and problems in areas with complex geometry. The influence of the bubble’s initial position relative to the channel centerline on the bubble deformation, the relative velocity of the bubble, and its center of mass displacement in the channel are considered.
