Abstract

In nuclear engineering, fluid flows involving free surface were well studied, e.g., pipe thinning produced by liquid droplet impingement, and steam explosion triggered by molten metal immersed in water. The moving particle simulation (MPS) method was often used in past studies. In this method, the Poisson equation was solved to obtain the pressure field. Solving the Poisson equation becomes a dominant process. Reducing the time of calculation of the Poisson equation is important for using the CFD in the engineering fields. Thereat, we propose a new MPS method by which the pressure field is calculated explicitly. We call it the explicit (E-)MPS method. The E-MPS method was applied to a static water and dam break problem to show its adequacy. Besides, we compare the calculation time between the E-MPS method and traditional one.
