    Abstract

    A simple and efficient finite-volume method is presented for the computation of compressible flows of two immiscible fluids at very different densities. One novel ingredient in the method is a two-fluid Osher-type scheme, which is capable of computing the cell-face flux in case of two different fluids (e.g., water and air) left and right of the cell face. The other original property of the method is that a level-set term, for distinguishing between the two fluid8, is consistently incorporated as one of the flux components. The level-set flux is properly treated by the Osher-type scheme.
