Abstract
The unified simulation for the multiphase flow by predictor-corrector scheme based on CIP method is introduced. In this algorithm, the interface between different phases is identified by a density function and tracked by solving an advection equation. Solid body motion is modeled by the translation and angular motion. The mathematical formulation and numerical results are also described. To verify the efficiency, accuracy and capability of proposed algorithm, two dimensional incompressible cavity flow, the motion of a floating ball into water and a single rising bubble by buoyancy force are numerically simulated by the present scheme. As results, it is confirmed that the present scheme gives an efficient, stable and reasonable solution in the multiphase flow problem.
