Hi all
I am using CFX 10.0 in order to simulate air bubble behavior rising in a vertical pipe filled with stagnant water. I have chosen the follow sets: simulation type: transient, free-surface model, buoyant flow, gravity vector: (0;0;-9.81), reference density: rho.air, Surface tension: 0.0718 N/m. I started from a spherical bubble which is located in pipe bottom. However, bubble does not rise. what is wrong? Thanks for your help |

Why is BUOYANCY REFERENCE LOCATION: located at that particular position?
The air isnt feeling the gravity body force ... |

Since ptotal=p+pref+rho.ref*(z-zref)*g, I choose zref on top of chanel in order to add hidrostatyc contribution due water. This is true if rho.ref=rho.water, but it isnt, right? rho.ref=rho.air.It`s my mistake. Where can I set zref?
