The level set function is designed to capture the location of the material interface. For multi-dimensional and multi-material fluids, the modified ghost fluid method needs a Riemann solution to renew the variable states near the interface. Here we present a new convenient and effective algorithm for solving the Riemann problem in the normal direction. The extrapolated variables are populated by Taylor series expansions in the direction. The anti-diffusive high order WENO difference scheme with the limiter is adopted for the numerical simulation. Finally we implement a series of numerical experiments of multi-material flows. The obtained results are satisfying, compared to those by other methods.展开更多
