mass inflow rate

I think the laplacian vol weighted smoothing option you chose only applies to surface tension. Not sure on that, but I am sure it does not smooth the general VF field so it is not what you want.

What do you mean "nothing happen?" When correctly applied that creates a circular smeared interface. If nothing happens then you have not applied it correctly.

may be due to wrong applied but in documentation, does not said what is (x,y) coord.
is x horizontal and y vertical, also in my case both x and z horozontal and y vertical, so I suprised what I do!!!, the second one the radius r = 0.3 m for my case is very big dimension, is that related to mesh size my mesh (0.01 m), thirdly what does that mean x,y (0.5,0.5), this is according to what? main corrdinate location.
