A Particle-Scale Model of Surface Tension for Two-Phase Flow: Model Description and Validation

A particle-scale surface tension force model (STF) is proposed here to be incorporated in the smoothed hydrodynamics particle (SPH) method. This model is based on the identification of interface geometry and the gradient of densities across the interface. A square bubble of single-phase and a square...
