Abstract: |
This study used the moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) method to simulate the surface tension force in the free surface flow. A surface tension force model for the MPS was implemented, which was proposed based on the potential energy. This numerical approach for the surface tension force in the free surface flow was verified by the numerical simulation of the two-dimensional liquid droplet oscillation and the liquid jet breakup. Simulation results agreed well with analytical or experimental ones. Moreover, a three-dimensional water jet into a cylinder was simulated using the MPS method together with the surface tension model. It was then validated that the MPS method together with the surface tension model can effectively and easily simulate the surface tension force in the free surface flows. |
