Mathematical modeling of two-phase flow
Abstract
A continuum mechanics approach to two-phase flow is reviewed. An averaging procedure is discussed and applied to the exact equations of motion. Constitutive equations are supplied and discussed for the stresses, pressure differences and the interfacial force. The nature of the resulting equations is studied.
