Abstract
The present paper is concerned with an advanced version of the deterministic coalescence model [1] and its application to turbulent bubble-laden flows. The major drawback of this film drainage model - its incapability to handle large numbers of coalescence processes - is avoided by an a-priori determination of a parametric relation for the transition time between the main drainage mechanisms. The comparison with experimental results yields a good overall agreement, while the application to a downward pipe flow demonstrates the ability of the model to efficiently handle large numbers of coalescence processes.
