LBDEMCoupling - Dense Suspensions and Particles with different sizes

Submitted by Shay Haq on Thu, 12/27/2018 - 23:46

Hi Philippe,

I am new to DEM-LBM world and have the following questions regarding LBDEMCoupling:-

1) Can LBDEMcoupling be used for densely packed particles? I read it somewhere in your papers mentioning that the algorithm assumes that only a single sphere is present in each cell and could lead to inaccuracies for dense suspensions?

2) Can it be used for particles with varying sizes? I could see all the examples available only for one sized particles.

Thanks for your help.

regards,
