Abstract

This paper is concerned with a mathematical and numerical study of liquid dynamics in a horizontal capillary. We derive a two-liquids model for the prediction of capillary dynamics. This model takes into account the effects of real phenomena: like the outside flow action, or the entrapped gas inside a closed-end capillary. Moreover, the limitations of the one-dimensional model are clearly indicated. Finally, we report on several tests of interest: an academic test case that can be used to check available numerical methods, a test for decreasing values of the capillary radius, a simulation concerning a closed-end capillary, and two test cases for two liquids flow. In order to study the introduced mathematical model, our main tool, is a reliable one-step adaptive numerical approach based on a one-step one-method strategy.
