Abstract
A Volume of Fluid (VOF) – Youngs' model for the solution of an incompressible immiscible two-phase flows is presented. The solver computes the flow field by solving the family of Navier Stokes equations on a fixed (Eulerian) Staggered Cartesian grid using the Finite Volume formulation of Semi-Implicit Pressure Linked Equation (SIMPLE) method and tracks the position of interface between two fluids with different fluid properties by Piecewise Linear Interface Construction (PLIC) Method. The suitability of the SIMPLE type implementation is assessed by investigating the dynamics of free rising bubbles for different fluid properties and flow parameters. The results obtained with the present numerical method for rising bubbles in viscous liquids are compared with reported numerical and experimental results.
