The editors have carried out a major project published here to select and specify a range of hot cases for interface tracking methods. The cases range from single individual bubble behavior to more complex cases such as cavitation. The cases will be of enormous help to all specialists using advanced computational methods to classify and validate multiphase flows. Practical significance of each case is elucidated.
