Abstract
The numerical method for magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) on liquid metal fluid with free surface was developed based on an adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) technique improving the simulation accuracy near the bubble, in which VOF/PLIC method is used to capture the interface and a consistent and conservative scheme used to calculate the electrical current density and the electromagnetic force. The movement and deformation of a bubble under a magnetic field are studied at different Hartmann numbers.
