Abstract

A numerical simulation of the interaction between a plasma flow and a liquid jet was investigated, leading to the proposal of a compressible model, based on augmented Lagrangian, Large Eddy Simulation (LES) turbulence modeling and Volume of Fluid (VOF) approaches, capable of managing incompressible two-phase flows as well as turbulent compressible motions. The VOF method utilized volume markers to advect the local concentration of gas and liquid in a Eulerian manner. The numerical model was validated on single-phase plasma configurations as well as two-phase cross flow liquid jet interactions. Finally, an example of the first simulations of the interactions between a liquid jet and a plasma is presented. However improvements should be realized as to increase the speed of the VOF-SM algorithm or add specific subgrid models related to jet fragmentation and phase change.
