Abstract
We propose modifications to the standard algorithm to solve multiphase flows problems in the in-house solver FASTEST in
order to improve its efficiency and accuracy and allow the coupling with moving grids. The main focus is laid on comparing the
four high-resolution schemes M-CICSAM, HRIC, M-HRIC, and STACS. These are combined with the three implicit time
discretization schemes Implicit Euler, BDF2, and Crank Nicolson. Furthermore, the effects of density changes in the time term
of the momentum equations are analyzed. Two alternatives to include the variation of density in time are proposed, which
consider the conservative and nonconservative forms to discretize the time term. For this part, the parameters of interest are the
time-step length, the accuracy of the velocity field, and the number of iterations to achieve system convergence. To show the
effects of the implementations, the classic rising bubble is studied. Finally, the best working combination of high-resolution
scheme, time discretization method, and consideration of the density is used to simulate, a rigid body moving inside a multiphase
domain, as a basic fluid-structure interaction test case.
