An Impulse Ghost Fluid Method for Simulating Two-Phase Flows
DescriptionThis paper introduces a two-phase interfacial fluid model based on the impulse variable to capture complex vorticity-interface interactions. Our key idea is to leverage bidirectional flow map theory to enhance the transport accuracy of both vorticity and interfaces simultaneously and address their coupling within a unified Eulerian framework. At the heart of our framework is an impulse ghost fluid method to solve the two-phase incompressible fluid characterized by its interfacial dynamics. To deal with the history-dependent jump of gauge variables across a dynamic interface, we develop a novel path integral formula empowered by spatiotemporal buffers to convert the history-dependent jump condition into a geometry-dependent jump condition when projecting impulse to velocity.

We demonstrate the efficacy of our approach in simulating and visualizing several interface-vorticity interaction problems with cross-phase vortical evolution, including interfacial whirlpool, vortex ring reflection, and leapfrogging bubble rings.
