Numerical simulation of a water droplet splash: Comparison between PLIC and HRIC schemes for the VoF transport equation

A wide range of natural and industrial processes, such as a droplet falling in the ocean as well as the injection of fuel in an internal combustion engine, are physically explained by the study of multiphase flows. The understanding of these processes is a fundamental step in order to optimize their use in industrial applications. Computational tools have been increasingly used for that purpose. This paper concerns the simulation of a water...
