A volume capturing method using unstructured grid system for numerical analysis of multiphase flows is introduced in the present paper. This method uses an interface capturing method (CICSAM) in a volume of fluid(VOF) scheme for phase interface capturing. The novelty of CICSAM lies in the adaptive combination of high resolution discretization scheme which ensures the preservation of the sharpness and shape of the interface while retaining boundedness of the field, and no explicit interface reconstruction which is perceived to be difficult to implement on unstructured grid system. Several typical test cases for multiphase flows are presented, which are simulated by an in-house solution code(PowerCFD). This code employs an unstructured cell-centered method based on a conservative pressure-based finite-volume method with CICSAM. It is found that the present method simulates efficiently and accurately complex free surface flows such as multiphase flows.

Two high resolution compressive schemes, CICSAM(Ubbink, 1997) and HRIC(Muzaferija & Peric, 1999), in interface capturing method are reviewed briefly with respect to the extended forms suitable for unstructured meshes. And then those are applied to three typical test cases of translation test, shearing flow test and collapsing water problem with an obstacle. It is accomplished by implementing the high resolution schemes in the in-house CFD code(PowerCFD) for computing 3-D flow with an unstructured cell-centered method, which is based on the finite-volume technique and fully conservative. The calculated results show that CICSAM is better than HRIC with respect to accuracy and robustness, although either scheme can be used as a good choice for free surface or two-phase flow simulation.

유체이송 기술은 최근 마이크로 유체시스템 개발에서 핵심문제로 인식되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 최근 저자가 제안한 외부동력을 사용하지 않고 액적을 이송시킬 수 있는 새로운 개념인 친수성/소수성 수평 표면에서의 액적이송을 자체개발 코드(PowerCFD)를 사용하여 수치해석하였다. 수치해석에 사용된 코드는 보존적인 압력기반 유한체적방법에 기초한 비정렬 셀 중심 방법 및 VOF 방법에 체적포착법인 CICSAM을 채용하고 있다. 액적 내 및 주위의 속도벡터, 압력분포 및 전체운동에너지와 같은 수치해석 결과를 제시하고 이 결과들을 통해 액적이송 메커니즘을 규명하였다.

In this paper, three-dimensional free-surface flows are simulated by using two different numerical methods, the constrained interpolation profile (CIP)-based and finite volume (FV)-based methods. In the CIP-based method, the governing equations are solved on stationary staggered Cartesian grids by a finite difference method, and an immersed boundary technique is applied to deal with wave-body interactions. In the FV-based method, the governing equations are solved by applying collocated finite volume discretization, and body-fitted meshes are used. A free-surface boundary is considered as the interface of the multi-phase flow with air and water, and a volumeof-fluid (VOF) approach is applied to trace the free surface. Among many variations of the VOF-type method, the tangent of hyperbola for interface capturing (THINC) and the compressive interface capturing scheme for arbitrary meshes (CICSAM) techniques are used in the CIP-based method and FV-based method, respectively. Numerical simulations have been carried out for dam-breaking and wave-body interaction problems. The computational results of the two methods are compared with experimental data and their differences are observed.

유체이송 기술은 최근 마이크로 유체시스템 개발에서 핵심문제로 인식되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 외부동력을 사용하지 않고 액적을 이송시킬 수 있는 새로운 개념을 제안하고, 수치해석을 통해 증명하였다. 제안된 장치는 표면을 단순하게 친수성과 소수성 표면의 복합표면으로 구성하는 것이다. 새로운 개념을 입증하기 위한 수치해석은 보존적인 압력기반 유한체적방법에 기초한 비정렬 셀 중심 방법 및 VOF 방법에 체적포착법인 CICSAM을 채용하고 있는 자체개발 코드(PowerCFD)를 사용하였다. 연구결과 본 연구에서 제안된 개념이 마이크로 유체시스템에서 액적이송에 대해 우수한 성능을 나타내는 것으로 확인되었다.

The Rayleigh-Taylor instability, the bubble rising in both partially and fully filled containers and the droplet splash are simulated by an in-house solution code(PowerCFD), which are typical benchmark problems among multiphase flows with material interface due to density difference. The present method(code) employs an unstructured cell-centered method based on a conservative pressure-based finite-volume method with interface capturing method(CICSAM) in a volume of fluid(VOF) scheme for phase interface capturing. The present results are compared with other numerical solutions found in the literature. It is found that the present method simulates efficiently and accurately complex free surface flows such as multiphase flows with material interface due to both density difference and instability.

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.

This paper presents a numerical study on multiphase flows induced by wall adhesion The CSF(Continuum Surface Force} model is used for the calculation of the surface tension force and implemented in an in-house solution code(PowerCFD). The present method(code) employs an unstructured cell-centered method based on a conservative pressure-based finite-volume method with volume capturing method(CICSAM) in a volume of fluid(VOF) scheme for phase interface capturing As an application of the present method, the effects of wall adhesion are numerically simulated with the CSF model for a shallow pool of water located at the bottom of a cylindrical tank. Two different cases are computed, one in which the water wets the wall and one in which the water does not wet the wall. It is found that the present method simulates efficiently and accurately surface tension-dominant multiphase flows induced by wall adhesion.
