Title: Direct Numerical Simulations of Multiphase Flow
Grétar Tryggvason, Ph.D. · Professor & Department Head of Mechanical Engineering at Worcester Polytechnic Institute
Abstract: Direct numerical simulations have recently emerged as a viable tool to understand finite Reynolds number multiphase flows. The approach parallels DNS of turbulence, but the unsteady motion of a deforming phase boundary adds considerable complexity. After a brief overview of the numerical challenges, one approach, front-tracking, is described in some detail.
