Decoupled Mesh Method for Finite Element Simulation of Two-Phase Systems
Congress: CHT
ABSTRACT:
This paper describes a finite element solution for a two-phase flow problem, where the fluid mesh and the interface mesh are decoupled. One single phase example is shown to validate the finite element code, and two two-phase flow examples are presented, the static droplet and the oscillating droplet, with air and water as fluids. Examples work as expected and show that the methodology is valid and suitable for two-phase flows.
