The objectives of this study are to test the ability of a solution scheme to preserve system mass, to model the period of oscillation, to test the ability of the numerical solution scheme to preserve the interface, and also to reveal any numerical damping. A two-fluid model is to be used with allowance for energy transfer between phases. %8 1987-11-01
