Abstract
Diffuse interface models have become an important analytical and numerical method to model two-phase flows. In this contribution we review the subject and discuss in detail a thermodynamically consistent model with a divergence free velocity field for two-phase flows with different densities. The model is derived using basic thermodynamical principles, its sharp interface limits are stated, existence results are given, different numerical approaches are discussed and computations showing features of the model are presented.
