The moment-of-fluid method (MOF) is an extension of the volume-of-fluid method with piecewise linear interface construction (VOF-PLIC). In MOF reconstruction, the optimized normal vector is determined from the reference centroid and the volume fraction by iteration. The state-of-art work by citet{milcent_moment--fluid_2020} proposed an analytic gradient of the objective function, which greatly reduces the computational cost. In this study, we further accelerate the MOF reconstruction algorithm by using Gauss-Newton iteration instead of Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (BFGS) iteration. We also propose an improved initial guess for MOF reconstruction, which improves the efficiency and the robustness of the MOF reconstruction algorithm. Our implementation of the code and test cases are available on our Github repository.
