    The rezoning phase of the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian method models the advection terms in the Navier-Stokes equations. Consequently, this method suffers from all the numerical difficulties associated with these terms, except when it is used for pure Lagrangian calculations. In particular, the use of any of the differencing options presently available in the CONCHAS-SPRAY computer program other than pure donor cell can create artificial oscillations in the solution through the dispersive truncation errors. This paper describes a flux-limiting procedure that suppresses these oscillations by locally adding enough donor-cell differencing to prevent nonphysical growth of local maxima and minima. Numerical solutions from CONCHAS-SPRAY illustrate the effectiveness of this algorithm.
