An adaptive quasi-Newton coupled multigrid solver for the simulation of steady multiphase flows

This thesis is concerned with the application of adaptive local quasi-Newton coupled multigrid (ALQNMG) solvers to the numerical simulation of viscous incompressible fluids, using the multi-fluid model. The ALQNMG methodologyh as proven highly successful for single phase flows [1], leading to soluti...
