Volume of fluid (VOF) method for the dynamics of free boundaries

Journal of Computational Physics, 1981
Several methods have been previously used to approximate free boundaries in finite-difference numerical simulations. A simple, but powerful, method is described that is based on the concept of a fractional volume of fluid (VOF). This method is shown to be more flexible and efficient than other methods for treating complicated free boundary ...

Numerical simulation of multiphase flows using an enhanced Volume-of-Fluid (VOF) method

International Journal of Mechanical Sciences, 2022
The main objective of the present work is to enhance the stability and accuracy of Volume-of-Fluid (VOF) method for simulating multiphase flow problems with large density ratios and moving interfaces. In order to accomplish this, a novel high-order TVD flux-limiter scheme is developed and applied to approximate the convective fluxes in the momentum ...

Analysis of the volume of fluid (VOF) method for the simulation of the mucus clearance process with CFD

Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, 2019
The clearance of mucus through coughing is a complex, multiphase process, which is affected principally by mucus viscosity and airflow velocity; however, it is also critically affected by the thickness of the two layers of mucus-the serous and gel layers-and oscillation level. The present study examines the effects of the latter parameters more closely.

Transient simulations of cavitating flows using a modified volume-of-fluid (VOF) technique

International Journal of Computational Fluid Dynamics, 2008
In this study, transient 2D/axisymmetric simulations of cavitating flows are performed using a modified 'Volume-of-Fluid' (VOF) technique. Simulation of the cavitation is based on a homogenous equilibrium flow model. To predict the shape of the cavity, the Navier-Stokes equations in addition to an advection equation for the liquid volume fraction are ...

Finite element analysis of transient fluid flow with free surface using VOF (volume-of-fluid) method and adaptive grid

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, 1998
Summary: The volume-of-fluid (VOF) method is adopted for the finite element analysis of transient fluid flow with a free surface. In particular, an adaptation technique for generating an adaptive grid is incorporated to capture a higher resolution of the free surface configuration.
