摘要： 本文开发了一种耦合气体和两层不同密度液体的直接模拟数值模型，以研究变密度流体层中气泡浮升的运动特性.基于高精度空间离散的5阶加权本质无振荡格式和时间离散的3阶Runge-Kutta格式，提出一种多水平集函数耦合的数值方法，实现了气液相界面和各液体表面的捕捉以及交界面处密度和黏度的计算.模型用已有文献的计算结果进行了验证，并应用于水、油两层流体中气泡运动的研究，有效地捕捉了复杂条件下气泡浮升运动的精细结构.研究发现：相较于均匀密度流体层中的运动，气泡在变密度流体层中运动时，其下方的压差液柱更容易在底部发生断裂分离；气泡上方液体的厚度较大，则气泡处于水下变形阶段的时间就越长，并使气泡底部的形态更趋向于扁平.

Abstract: In this paper, a direct numerical simulation model coupled with gas and two layers of liquid with different densities is developed to study the dynamics of rising bubbles in a two-layer stratified environment. Based on the level set method with 5th-order weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) and 3rd-order Runge-Kutta scheme, a numerical method coupling multiple level set functions is proposed to capture both the gas-liquid interface and each liquid surface, as well as calculating both the density and viscosity on the interface. The method proposed is verified by comparing with the available numerical simulation results. Besides, this model is employed to study the motion of a rising bubble in a two-layer fluid involving water and oil, which provides detailed flow structures in a complex environment. The results suggest that compared with the movement in a uniform environment, the water column induced by pressure difference is easier to break at the bottom when a bubble rises against a two-layer stratified background. The increase of liquid thickness above the bubble can extend the time that the bubble stays in the underwater deformation stage, and can lead to a flatter bottom of the bubble.
