We present an efficient, fully conservative numerical scheme valid in the entire range of highly to weakly compressible flows using a single-fluid four equation approach together with multi-component thermodynamic models. The approach can easily be included into existing finite volume methods on compact stencils and enables handling of compressibility of all involved phases including surface tension, cavitation and viscous effects. The mass fraction (indicator function) is sharpened in the two-phase interface region using the algebraic interface sharpening technique Tangent of Hyperbola for INterface Capturing (THINC). The cell face reconstruction procedure for mass fractions switches between an upwind-biased and a THINC-based scheme, along with proper slope limiters and a suitable compression coefficient, respectively. For additional sub-grid turbulence modeling, a fourth order central scheme is included into the switching process, along with a modified discontinuity sensor. The proposed All-Mach Riemann solver consistently merges the thermodynamic relationship of the components into the reconstructed thermodynamic variables (like density, internal energy), wherefore we call them All Mach THINC-based Thermodynamic-Dependent Update (All-Mach THINC-TDU) method. Both, liquid-gas and liquid-vapor interfaces can be sharpened. Surface tension effects are taken into account by using a Continuum Surface Force (CSF) model. An explicit, four stage low storage Runge Kutta method is used for time integration. The proposed methodology is validated against a series of reference cases, such as bubble oscillation,advection,deformation, shock-bubble interaction, a vapor bubble collapse and a multi-component shear flow. Finally, the approach is applied to simulate the three-dimensional primary break-up of a turbulent diesel jet. |
