Abstract

A conservative finite-volume method for computing 3-D flow with an unstructured cell-centered method has been extended to free surface flows or two-fluid systems with topologically complex interfaces. It is accomplished by implementing the high resolution method(CICSAM) by Ubbink(1997) for the accurate capturing of fluid interfaces on unstructured meshes, which is based on the finite-volume technique and is fully conservative. The calculated results with the present method are compared to show the ease and accuracy with available numerical and experimental results reported in the literature.
