Efficient simulation of one-dimensional two-phase flow with a high-order h-adaptive space-time Discontinuous Galerkin method

One-dimensional models for multiphase flow in pipelines are commonly discretised using first-order Finite Volume (FV) schemes, often combined with implicit time-integration methods. While robust, these methods introduce much numerical diffusion depending on the number of grid points. In this paper we propose a high-order, space-time...

A novel pressure-free two-fluid model for one-dimensional incompressible multiphase flow

A novel pressure-free two-fluid model formulation is proposed for the simulation of one-dimensional incompressible multiphase flow in pipelines and channels. The model is obtained by simultaneously eliminating the volume constraint and the pressure from the widely used two-fluid model (TFM). The resulting ‘pressure-free two-fluid model’ (PF...
