Title: New VOF interface capturing and reconstruction algorithms

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/14478· OSTI ID:14478

Several new methods are presented for the capturing and tracking of material boundary interfaces. All methods belong to the general Volume Of Fluid (VOF) approach, and vary from simple flow aligned algorithms to more complex geometric modeling. The performance of the different methods is evaluated by solving the advection equations for a variant of the canonical multi-fluid ''ball & jacks'' problem.
