Modeling fluid behavior with computer numerical models can be very difficult due to the physical phenomenon which can be present in complex fluid systems. One difficult situation to model is when there is more than one type of fluid in a system. Some of these systems include fluids which do not mix, such as is the case when a liquid and a gas are present. In this situation, the gas phase will form bubbles which are dispersed throughout the liquid phase. Modeling the breakup and coalescence of these bubbles is critical to correctly model this type of situation.
