Spurious currents at the interface is a common problem with free surface models with surface tension. So only turn the surface tension model on if you really need it.

I strongly disagree that mass...

I have never done this type of model. CFX should have the necessary models to do it. But do not be confused into thinking this is a simple simulation - multiphase with phase change mass transfer is...

You can model evaporation in CFX. But the question is more: If you are modelling evaporation in a dam do you need a CFD solver to do it?

Why do you want to model evaporation in a dam? What will...

Treat the liquid domain as a control volume, with a specified volume and temperature. Work out the temperature change, the evaporation (mass loss) and volume change for that time step, and iterate...

Why are you modelling this with CFD? Why can't you just model this with simple control volume approaches?

If the interface is stationary then I would consider having them as separate domains and not use a multiphase model at all. Then you can impose the free surface transfer functions as interface...

What does the free surface do? Is it always flat or close to it? Does it go up and down? Or does it have waves, splashing and/or foam?

Each of these different states should be modelled differently.
