Hi everybody! I'm new in CFDEM and I'm trying to solve some issues that I have on my simulation. The setup it's quite simple, a square box with three small inlets and one outlet. The particles are inserted on the top of the box and y want to visualize how they are transported by the fluid.
Everything seems to be ok but when I check the results in paraview it seems that on the first half of the simulation no coupling it's made, then suddenly the fluid start to move the particles. I tried to change the starting time in controlDict but nothing changed, I also reduced and enlarged the coupling time but I couldn't solve the problem.
I attached a tar.gz with the setup.
If someone have an idea of where could be the problem it would be great!
Thanks,
Mauro

Hi Mauro,
Hi Mauro,
having a quick look at your setup I think you should check your settings in CFD/0/U .
Setting it to a fixedValue as e.g.
type fixedValue;
value uniform (0 0 0.01);
should do the trick.
Cheers
Josef
