A process for simulating the motion of a first fluid, a second fluid and an interface between the first fluid and the second fluid. The fluid velocities and pressures of the first and second fluids are calculated at a first set of nodes on a first mesh at a first time step, representative of movement of the first and second fluids at the first time step. The level set, which is representative of a position of the interface, is calculated at the first time step, at a second set of nodes on a second mesh. The second mesh is odd times finer than the first mesh. The new fluid velocities and pressures of the first and second fluids are calculated at the first set of nodes at a second time step, representative of new movement of the first and second fluids at a second time step. The new level set is calculated at the second set of nodes, representative of a new position of the interface at the second time step.
