Resumen
We establish a framework for describing the spatial and temporal distribution of entrained air bubbles under breaking surface waves. The computational framework is based on a large eddy simulation (LES) in 3-D together with a VOF treatment of the air-water interface. An Eulerian multiphase approach is used in order to track the entrained bubbles as a number density distribution. Examples of numerical results for breaking periodic surf zone waves are illustrated.Referencias
