Sun Ming-bo · Aeronautical Computing Technique · 2012
In this paper,we proposed a coupled level-set and VOF(Volume of Fluid) method(CLSVOF) to overcome the weakness of mass loss in traditional level-set method.This algorithm preserves good characteristic of the smooth on interface in level-set method as well as the high conservation property in VOF approach.A 5th order WENO(Weighted Essentially Non-Oscillatory) was employed to discretize the spacial term,while Gueyffier′s interface construction method was used for the VOF transport equation.Test cases in 3D have shown the algorithm in this paper made an obvious improvement in the conservation property of level-set method.
