Hi All,
I want to learn how to set up the model of A rotary drum shown in the LIGGGHTS Feature, moving mesh. Is this model in the liggghts examples? or How can I find it?
Thanks,
Kun

you can adapt the
you can adapt the movingmeshgran example from examples/LIGGGHTS/TutorialPublic/movingmeshgran/ simply change the stl to your drum and the move/mesh linear statement to rotate. read the manual about move/mesh !

What is your email ID?
Hello Ram, It is very good that your answers on the forum are helpful. I'd like to contact you over email for some of the questions / problems I have in LIGGGHTS. Would you be okay to share your email address here? Thank you, Jagan Mohan.

rotary drum dryer
Like the previous poster I would like to experiment with a model such as that shown in the LIGGGHTS Features: rotary drum dryer example.
The model provided in the examples/LIGGGHTS/TutorialPublic/movingmeshgran/ in the distribution I recently installed is the moving bucket example (also from LIGGHTS Feature).
Some guidance on how to set up the rotary drum would be very helpful.
Thanks

rotary drum dryer
Where can I find an stl file for the rotary drum?

You could create your own stl
You could create your own stl with gmsh or gambit/tgrid or Design Modeller or FreeCAD.

I use the gmsh to create the stl file for the dry drum. I think it is easy to learn and use for simple structure.

time step in liggghts
i am using liggghts for rotating drum. i am using 50000 particle of 1mm.
i am using a time step of 1e-06. If i do not use this time step, the simulations are diverging but using this time step is taking huge amount of time.
whether anybody suggest me how to increase the time step .may be 1e-05.
I am sure why this simple problem requires of time step 1e-06.

A stable timestep is largely
A stable timestep is largely determined by particle size, density, and modulus. You can often get away with lowering the modulus a bit (I prefer to use G >= 1e7 Pa) from reality with no significant impact on the simulation results, which may buy you some time depending on where you're currently at.
See fix_check/timestep/gran for details on determining stable timesteps. Shoot for dt ~ 20% of dt_r and you'll probably be fine.

Chris

Rotary Drum
I´m new on the code from liggghts and I´m trying to simulate the rotary drum, i tried to change some lines from the tutorial movingMeshGran, but have some troubles like I don´t know how to insert particles inside the drum, or another one was I´m trying to change the region to just show the drum, if the stl file must be closed to show the lifters inside. Someone could help me with instructions.
Thaks for the support

Hello,
Hello,
I need also some help about the rotary drum model. I readt in the previous comments that we can modify the movingmeshgran example from examples/LIGGGHTS/TutorialPublic/movingmeshgran/ to get what I want. Can you guys tell me exactly what should I modify in this example, other than replacing the bucket.stl file to the one I should create for the Drum?
I really need help in here !
I apprecaite your guidance.
