It is very simple but not straight forward. In many cases you would seen people model the top gas-liquid surface as outlet using two-fluid model. But, I hope that you would agree with me that two-fluid model is not expected to predict the gas-liquid surface. Ypu can model the top gas-liquid interface as follows:

1. Set top surface as inlet. Set all componet of liquid velocity to zero. Set vertical gas velocity to terminal rise

Good news about airfoil and OpenFoam

Posted February 20, 2013 at 03:42 by skeptik (CFD notes)

So, at the end of the testing OpenFOAM/simpleFoam, i get:

NACA23012
U=21.3, Re=0.44e6,

LowRe case, LaunderSharmaKE:
1. OF 1.7 cannot solve the case with kEpsilon on hex+tetra 2D mesh. It just crashes.

2. There are a lots of details when you use LowRe LSkEps model, you need lots of iteration, lots of interpolation data to provide better accuracy.

3. People invented k-omega for different flows near the walls. And better one - kOmega...
