Hi CS users,
Can VOF be used with ALE at the same time? For example, if the cylinder in the fluid-solid interaction tutorial case is immersed in a free surface flow, and the model requires VOF and ALE together. Thanks.

Re: VOF and ALE compatible?
Hello,
It should be compatible but we don’t have any validation test case for that so that would be nice if you could set up a toy model test case to check if it is working correctly.
If not, that will not be a big deal to fix (ALE is mainly impacting the other fields updating convective mass flux, if that is correct the rest should be ok).
Best Regards
Martin

Re: VOF and ALE compatible?
Hello,
VOF and ALE can be used simultaneously. I did some test with a wave generator.
Be careful with the version that you are using becouse were a bug fixed in the ALE Bc (commit 4b879fa).
