Abstract
Combining the advantages of the smoothed particle hydrodynamics method (SPH) in interface tracking and the finite volume method (FVM) in computational conservation, the SPH-FVM coupling method for interface flow simulation has been developed in recent years. The existing SPH-FVM coupling methods are based on the structured mesh which are difficult for the simulation of interfacial flows in irregular flow regions. In order to improve the applicability of SPH-FVM coupling method in the simulation of two-phase interfacial flow in irregular flow regions, a SPH-FVM coupling method based on triangular mesh is developed in this paper. The bidirectional transfer of information between the particles and the triangular grids is implemented in this study. A self-programming of SPH-FVM coupling method based on triangular mesh is realized. Some typical two-phase interfacial flows in regular and irregular flow regions are applied to verify the effectiveness and accuracy of the developed SPH-FVM coupling method. Results indicate that the SPH-FVM coupling method based on triangular mesh developed in this paper has good performance for the simulation of two-phase interfacial flow. Therefore, the SPH-FVM coupling method based on triangular mesh can be used as an optional method for the simulation of two-phase interfacial flow in irregular flow regions.
