Abstract

A mathematical model of a bubble rise in a liquid according to the degree of the surface mineralization (filling) of the particles was developed. The comparisons of the calculation results for the speed of bubble rise with empirical formulas were given. The question of differential equation hardness for bubble motion was investigated. The effect of changes in bubble size during the rise on the speed and time of bubble rise was studied. The results of numerical experiments were analyzed.
