forceModels RongDrag???

Submitted by Donald Trump on Wed, 12/19/2018 - 07:55

Hi Everyone,

When I am modifying the couplingProperties file in constant folder, I find the option in the forceModels called RongDrag, anyone can tell me where this option "drag force" come from, and how to set up its properties below:
RongDragProps
{
verbose true;
velFieldName "U";
voidfractionFieldName "voidfraction";
interpolation true;
implForceDEM true;
implForceDEMaccumulated true;
granVelFieldName "Us";
}
Also I find there are some options for the subModels which are not showing in the documents on the website. Can someone tell me about where I could get those information (Literature etc.) about how to set up parameters in those dictionary.

Thank you very much!

Hi,

the RongDang drag model is not part of CFDEM(R)coupling PUBLIC. The coupling properties dictionary can contain unused Property  dictionaries, and sometimes some dicts make it to the properites, that have no corresponding model in the PUBLIC.

Cheers,
