Description

To solve the non-conservative system of the two-phase flow model in the TRIO-U two-phase flow module, a fully unstructured finite volume formulation is chosen, and the discretization is based on the concept of flux-scheme. Our method allows to determine whether hyperbolicity is necessary to have stable and convergent numerical computations. We discuss the necessity or not to consider all the differential transfer terms between the two-phases in the up-winding of the flux. Numerical results are presented in order to study out the influence of the pressure interface term in the stability, as well as in the up-winding of the flux. (author)
