Abstract:The numerical modelling of convection dominated high density ratio two-phase flow poses several challenges, amongst which is resolving the relatively thin shear layer at the interface. To this end we propose a sharp discretisation of the two-velocity model of the two-phase Navier-Stokes equations. This results in the ability to model the shear layer, rather than resolving it, by allowing for a velocity discontinuity in the direction(s) tangential to the interface.In a previous paper (Remmerswaal and Veldman (2… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
