Abstract
A computational tool is developed to capture the interaction of solid object with two-phase flow. The full two-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations are solved on a regular structured grid to resolve the flow field. The level set and the immersed boundary methods are used to capture the free surface of a fluid and a solid object, respectively. A two-step projection method along with Multi-Processing (OpenMP) is employed to solve the flow equations. The computational tool is verified based on numerical and experimental data with three scenarios: a cylinder falling into a rectangular domain due to gravity, transient vertical oscillation of a cylinder by releasing above its equilibrium position,...

Abstract
Purpose - A numerical method is developed to capture the interaction of solid object with two-phase flow with high density ratios. The current computational tool would be the first step of accurate modeling of wave energy converters in which the immense energy of the ocean can be extracted at low cost. Design/methodology/approach - The full two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations are discretized on a regular structured grid, and the two-step projection method along with multi-processing (OpenMP) is used to efficiently solve the flow equations. The level set and the immersed boundary methods are used to capture the free surface of a fluid and a solid object, respectively. The full...
