Solver Settings: Explicit Schemes
• Explicit Schemes
– Use geo-reconstruct or compressive for sharper interface tracking and better accuracy
– Use PISO algorithm
– Increase all URF factors up to 1.0
• Lower time step if does not converge
– Ensure good volume conservation - solve pressure correction equation with high accuracy
(termination criteria to 0.001 for multigrid solver)
– Solve the VOF equation once per time step
– Always use PRESTO or body force weighted scheme for pressure
• Implicit Scheme
– Use Compressive scheme for better accuracy, HRIC for better stability
– Increase the VOF URF from 0.2 to 0.5
