We present a second order time-stepping scheme for parabolic problems on moving domains and interfaces. The diffusion coefficient is discontinuous and jumps across an interior interface. This causes the solution to have discontinuous derivatives in space and time. Without special treatment of the interface, both spatial and temporal discretization will be sub-optimal. For such problems, we develop a time-stepping method, based on a cG(1) Eulerian space-time Galerkin approach. We show −both analytically and numerically− second order convergence in time. Key to gaining the optimal order of convergence is the use of space-time test- and trial-functions, that are aligned with the moving interface. Possible applications are multiphase flow or fluid-structure interaction problems.
