DERIVATION OF A TWO-PHASE FLOW MODEL ACCOUNTING FOR SURFACE TENSION

Résumé

This paper addresses the derivation of a two-phase flow model accounting for surface tension effects, by means of the Stationary Action Principle (SAP). The Lagrangian functional, defining the Action, is composed of a kinetic energy, accounting for interface feature, and a potential energy. The key element of the model lies on the assumption that the interface separating the two phases admits its own internal energy, satisfying a Gibbs form including both surface tension and interfacial area. Thus surface tension is taken into account both in the potential energy and the kinetic one which define the Lagrangian functional. Applying the SAP allows to build a set of partial differential equations modelling the dynamics of the two-phase flow. It includes evolution equations of the volume fraction and the interfacial area, accounting for mechanical relaxation terms. The final model is shown to be well posed (hyperbolicity, Lax entropy).
