Abstract

A constrained interpolation profile CIP-based numerical tank is developed to simulate violent free surface flows. The numerical simulation is performed by the CIP-based Cartesian grid method, which is described in the present paper. The tangent of hyperbola for interface capturing (THINC) scheme is applied for capturing complex free surfaces. The new model is capable of simulating a flow with violently varied free surface. A series of computations are conducted to assess the developed algorithm and its versatility. These tests include the collapse of water column with and without an obstacle, sloshing in a fixed tank, the generation of regular waves in a tank, the generation of extreme waves in a tank. Excellent agreements are obtained when numerical results are compared with available analytical, experimental, and other numerical results.
