Numerical solutions of the mould filling stage are presented for the bench mark exercise organized as part of the Conference on the Modeling of Casting, Welding and Advanced Solidification Processes--7. The Navier Stokes equations are discretized by a Galerkin Least Square method. The metal front is tracked by the pseudo-concentration approach, a variant of the volume-of-fluid method. An implicit-explicit combination is used for obtaining efficient numerical solutions.
