What Does VOF Stand For?
VOF stands for Volume Of Fluid
VOF, or Volume Of Fluid, is a numerical method used in computational fluid dynamics to track and locate the interface between two or more immiscible fluids. This technique is particularly valuable for simulating free-surface flows, such as those found in oceanography, chemical engineering, and environmental engineering. By employing a volume fraction to represent each fluid, the VOF method enables detailed analysis of fluid behavior, allowing for accurate predictions of fluid dynamics and interaction.
