Transient Simulation of Diffusion-Limited Electrodeposition Using Volume of Fluid (VOF) Method
A numerical model utilizing the volume of fluid (VOF) method is proposed to simulate the transient shape changes of the deposit front, considering the diffusion-limited electrodeposition process. Modeling equations are proposed to accurately handle transport phenomena in both electrolyte (fluid) and deposit (solid).
