A new volume of fluid method in three dimensions-Part II: Piecewise-planar interface reconstruction with cubic-Bezier fit
A new interface reconstruction method in 3D is presented. The method involves a conservative level-contour reconstruction coupled to a cubic-Bezier interpolation. The Use of the proposed piecewise linear interface calculation (PLIC) reconstruction scheme coupled to a multidimensional time integration provides solutions of second-order spatial and temporal accuracy. The accuracy and efficiency of the proposed reconstruction algorithm are demonstrated through several tests, Whose results are compared with those obtained with other recently proposed methods. An overall improvement in accuracy with repect to other recent methods has been achieved, along with a substantial reduction ill the Central processing Unit time required.
