We developed a ghost fluid method satisfying conservation laws to simulate steam explosions that can occur at the accident of a nuclear power plant. In the developed method, a first-order approximation is applied to interface effect regions, and a high-order approximation is applied to bulk regions. In other words, the algorithm of the developed method is not consistent. Therefore, we modify the way of getting ghost fluids and propose a comprehensive algorithm that applies a high-order approximation to interface effect regions. In the presentation, we will report the outlines and results of the numerical tests of it.
