A simple line interface calculation-volume of fluid(SLIC-VOF)interface reconstruction technology was developed on the basis of the triangular unstructured grid. For a cell containing the interface
a straight line segment parallel with one side of the triangle cell was set on the interface according to the volume fractions in the three neighbor cells. The volume flux of the fluid with the assigned phase was determined by the geometry relation between the interface line and the volume flux on each side. Three tests were performed to verify the feasibility of the present unstructured SLIC-VOF interface reconstruction method
including an advection test of a right-angled triangle
the Zalesak slotted disk rotation test
and a single-vortex shearing flow test. The results show that the accuracy of the present method for the unstructured grid with 7 600 cells is comparative with that of the conventional SLIC-VOF method for the structured grid with 6 400 cells after the interface restoration in the reversed velocity field.
