Numerical investigation of interfacial mass transfer in two phase flows using the VOF method

A mass transfer model is developed using the volume-of-fluid (VOF) method with a piecewise linear interface calculation (PLIC) scheme in ANSYS FLUENT for a free-rising bubble. The mass flow rate is defined via the interface by Fick's law and added into the species equation as a source term in t...
