Numerical benchmark of transient pressure-driven metallic melt flows
Fluid dynamics simulations of melting and crater formation at the surface of a copper cathode exposed to high plasma heat fluxes and pressure gradients are presented. The predicted deformations of the free surface and the temperature evolution inside the metal are benchmarked against previously publ...
