An improved numerical method for convective transport in two-dimensional, incompressible, two-phase flow
Abstract
Procedures which perform explicit transport of phase-mass, and phase-momentum, in two-dimensional, incompressible, two-phase flow are presented. Incorporation into the PHOENICS computer code is described. Results obtained by PHOENICS 84 for a two-dimensional test problem demonstrate that the procedures work correctly. The most accurate results are obtained using second order transport of volume-fraction and momentum. Run times decrease by 20%.
