摘要：

Taylor bubbles rising through liquids in vertical circular tubes and between parallel planes are axisymmetric and nearly spherical at the top. In a vertical annulus, however, the bubbles are radially asymmetric and never occupy the whole cross-sectional area. Analysis indicates that axisymmetric bubbles rise in an annulus at lower rates than those observed experimentally and hence are never observed in practice. In contrast, the asymmetric bubbles take an elliptic shape which results in higher rise velocities. A theoretical model for the rise velocity of an elliptic bubble has been developed and the comparison with experiment is satisfactory. © 1990.
