    Abstract
    Purpose - This study aims to present compatible computational fluid dynamics procedure for calculation of incompressible three-dimensional time-dependent flow with complicated free surface deformation. A computer software is developed and validated using a variety of academic test cases. Design/methodology/approach - Two fluids are modeled as a single continuum with a fluid property jump at the interface by solving a scalar transport equation for volume fraction. In conjunction, the conservation equations for mass and momentum are solved using fractional step method. Here, a finite volume discretisation and colocated arrangement are used. Findings - The developed code results in accurate...
