We present a numerical procedure for two-dimensional unsteady viscous free surface flow problems with surface tension. The procedure is based on a finite difference approach to a primitive variable formulation; a coordinate transformation is used to transform the irregularly shaped flow domain onto a fixed rectangular domain. The procedure is tested on a standing wave problem and a cavity flow problem with a free surface. Satisfactory numerical solutions are obtained for both problems for Reynolds numbers up to 200.
