A moving mesh finite volume interface tracking method for surface tension dominated interfacial fluid flow
Željko Tuković,Hrvoje Jasak +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a moving mesh interface tracking method implemented in OpenFOAM for simulating three-dimensional (3-D) incompressible and immiscible two-phase interfacial fluid flows with dominant surface tension forces is described.

Incompressible material point method for free surface flow
TL;DR: Numerical examples including dam break, oscillation of a cubic liquid drop and a droplet impact into deep pool show that the proposed incompressible material point method is much more accurate and efficient than the weakly compressiblematerial point method in solving free surface flow problems.

A numerical model of two-phase flow at the micro-scale using the volume-of-fluid method
TL;DR: A simple and robust numerical scheme to model two-phase flow in porous media where capillary forces dominate over viscous effects and how the co-current flow of two viscous fluids leads to greatly enhanced flow conductance for the wetting phase in corners of the pore space is shown.

Evaporation analysis in sintered wick microstructures
TL;DR: In this paper, pore-scale analysis of thin-film evaporation through sintered copper wicks is performed using X-ray microtomography to generate geometrically faithful, feature-preserving meshes.

Unsteady magnetohydrodynamic blood flow through irregular multi-stenosed arteries
TL;DR: The present observations certainly have some clinical implications relating to magnetotherapy which help reducing the complex flow separation zones causing flow disorder leading to the formation and progression of the arterial diseases.

Volume of fluid (VOF) method for the dynamics of free boundaries
C.W Hirt,B. D. Nichols +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the concept of a fractional volume of fluid (VOF) has been used to approximate free boundaries in finite-difference numerical simulations, which is shown to be more flexible and efficient than other methods for treating complicated free boundary configurations.

Fronts propagating with curvature-dependent speed: algorithms based on Hamilton-Jacobi formulations
Stanley Osher,James A. Sethian +1 more
TL;DR: The PSC algorithm as mentioned in this paper approximates the Hamilton-Jacobi equations with parabolic right-hand-sides by using techniques from the hyperbolic conservation laws, which can be used also for more general surface motion problems.

Numerical Calculation of Time‐Dependent Viscous Incompressible Flow of Fluid with Free Surface
Francis H. Harlow,J. Eddie Welch +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new technique is described for the numerical investigation of the time-dependent flow of an incompressible fluid, the boundary of which is partially confined and partially free The full Navier-Stokes equations are written in finite-difference form, and the solution is accomplished by finite-time step advancement.
