Drum stops rotating after few time steps

Submitted by gibel on Mon, 07/04/2022 - 16:13

Can I get little bit help?

I am doing simulation in rotating drum.
When I put my timestep to 0.0001 it is running without any problem. But I need more information about particles so I tried to make timesteps smaller which means 0.00001.
After decreasing the timestep , drum starts rotating while particles are inserting. And another problem is drum stops after certain timestep and particles move without drum's movement. Which is weird.

Can I get some hints so that (1) drum rotates after particles insertion and (2) Drum rotates continously until simulation is done.

I have attached my input file here.

Thank you.

In the script, I mentioned thant drum will rotate 60 s. Is it possible that drum is stopping after 60s?

The simulation should be going for 60 seconds after the initialization. And the drum should start to rotate after the initialization and keep rotating until the end of the simulation.
Unfortunately I can not see anything in your script which would cause early stop of the drum rotating :(
