Abstract:	A numerical study of two gaseous bubbles merging into a single coalesced bubble as in underwater explosions is investigated in this paper. This explosive phenomenon is modeled using a boundary integral method. Two configurations, which are in-phase and out-of-phase explosions, are simulated and compared with available experimental results. The thickness of the liquid film between the two bubbles determines our coalescence criterion. Bubble shapes and periods of oscillation are predicted well, compared to those of the experiments. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
