An Embedded Boundary Method for Two Phase Incompressible Flow

Numerical Analysis 2013-06-12 v2

Abstract

We develop an embedded boundary method (EBM) to solve the two-phase incompressible flow with piecewise constant density. The front tracking method is used to track the interface. The fractional step methods are used to solve the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations while the EBM is used in the projection step to solve an elliptic interface problem for the pressure with a jump equal to the surface tension force across the interface. Several examples are used to verify the accuracy of the method.
