Multiphase CFD modeling of front propagation in a Hele-Shaw cell featuring a localized constriction

We study a liquid-gas front propagation in a modulated Hele-Shaw cell by means of multiphase computational fluid mechanics based on the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. In the simulations an obstacle that partially fills the gap is placed at the center of the cell, and the liquid-gas inter...
