Abstract
A two-dimensional, two-layer, nearly-horizontal flow is solved by the method of characteristics. In the computational model the two-dimensional field is divided in parallel channels and the two-dimensional flow is replaced by two series of one-dimensional canalized flows. This corresponds to a partial linearization of the problem. For a more realistic application of this model a dissipative interface and an accentuating interface are proposed. The cross-convective terms are introduced into the model numerically. Finally some computational results are mentioned.
