  • When extended to two-phase flows, weakly compressible models lead to a non-conservative system, which precludes its treatment using standard finite volume techniques. In this paper, a novel HLLC-type path-conservative scheme is formulated for the weakly compressible two-phase model. Furthermore, capillary effects are included in the proposed path-conservative scheme, eliminating the need to discretize surface tension terms separately. The first-order path-conservative formulation is combined with a local solution reconstruction technique to obtain high-order spatial accuracy. The solver is tested on several benchmark two-phase flow problems to demonstrate its efficacy.
