Sumario:[EN] The ALPACA compressible multiphase solver, developed by the Nanoshock workgroup of the Chair of Aerodynamics and Fluid Mechanics, is being employed for flow configurations involving different fluid phases which can with each other at supersonic speeds. It employs a levelset interface approach which allows a conservative treatment of the fluid interface. The present work will deal with the proposal of reformulating and modifying the usage of the levelset interface method in order to allow for the simulation of boundary-dominated flow configurations involving a fluid phase and rigid body boundaries. Therefore, the necessary changes are implemented in the code and the validation of the new method is achieved through the calculation of several cases from external source papers and through qualitative and quantitative comparison of the obtained results.
