Ronald Fong shows how to make a particle simulation to act as bubbles through a pipe in Houdini.

Ronald Fong’s Houdini/Houdono series serves as a dive for new users to Side FX Houdini. This latest installment shows how to make a liquid simulation without the complexities and simulation times of FLIP (fluid-implicit-particles). The tutorial still uses particles as a cheap simulation to mimic the look of bubbles. This way, you don’t have to simulate actual water.
