Abstract

The simulation of free surface problems (e.g. waves, bubbles) are important in various fields. Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) is one the famous methods to track the position of free surface. However, this method is usually used in Finite Element Method (FEM) systems. The main difficulty to integrate it into Finite Volume Method (FVM) systems is how to address the free surface boundary condition. This paper proposed a new numerical method to track the movement of free surface which combined ALE and FVM. And it is validated in 2D extrusion flows with Newtonian fluids. Comparisons were made with previous literature and similar results were obtained, which indicated that the correctness and effectiveness of our method.
