Hey there, I've been trying to simulate a scalar transport in a VoF simulation using the incompressibleVoF solver and the phaseScalarTransport function object on different geometries, by using a frozen velocity field and just simulating the outflow of the scalar from the domain.

I have serious boundedness and numerical diffusion issues with common discretization schemes (Upwind of course, but also limitedLinear01, Minmod, vanLeer), I thus wanted to use the MULES limiter to
- enforce limiting in a certain range
- compress interfaces and limit numerical diffusion as done in the volume fraction (alpha) field.

It it an option for the scalarTransport Function Object, as cited by https://cfd.direct/openfoam/free-software/mules/, but there's no such MULES plug in option for the phaseScalarTransport.

Do you have any idea, how to implement MULES with phaseScalarTransport?
