Abstract

The development of predictive capability for free surface flow with phase change is essential to evaluate transport phenomena in aerospace, geophysical and industrial flows. This paper presents a boundary condition capturing method, Ghost Fluid Method, to the multiphase flow with phase change problems. The second-order projection method has been used for incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The 3rd-order ENO scheme and 2nd-order semi-implicit Crank-Nicholson scheme is used to update the convective and diffusion term. This numerical investigation identifies the physics characterizing transient heat and mass transfer of multiphase flow. The preliminary results show that the numerical methodology is successful in modeling the multiphase flow with phase change. The contact discontinuity has been captured very well even when some severe deformation occurs.
