Two steps to calculate the interface plane portion :

Comparison with FLUVOF 3-D
• When the curvature is maximum, accuracy is better with SL-VOF 3-D than using FLUVOF : advantage of the P.L.I.C discretization of the interface
• The SL-VOF simulation is 4 times faster than FLUVOF : advantage of the Lagrangian advection
• Volume conservation is quite good : 0.13 % of loss compared to the initial fluid volume after 70 time steps
The method’s approximates (mean plane) are not penalizing the volume conservation

• The solution of this first simulation is used as an initialization of the VOF/Navier-Stokes solver (free surface, velocity and pressure)
• The end of the simulation (overturning, breaking and post-breaking) is computed with the VOF/Navier-Stokes model

Conclusions concerning this simulation
• Mesh of 900,000 cells (x = 5 cm then 2.5 cm, y = 10 cm, z 1.5 cm in the breaking zone) : CPU time 5 days and 10 h on a Digital Dec alpha bi-processor 500 MHz
• Breaking simulation with SL-VOF 3-D consistent with the BIEM simulation before breaking (focusing, values of the physical fields, interface aspect …)
• Mass conservation : loss is 0.7%, Energy conservation: loss is 10 % loss of amplitude during shoaling and delay to break with respect to the time predicted by BIEM
• Errors : numerical diffusion (coarse mesh along y and x in the shoaling zone), single phase-flow run
