Model-input

Submitted by aharon.sanchez on Wed, 03/14/2012 - 20:08

Hello,

I'm Aharon. I need help!I want to model a experiment in CFDEM, but I don't know what are the inputs of this programm. Might someone reply me what CDFDEM parameters I have to change if I want to vary the shape, size and density of the particle?

I have seen in some documents that one of this parameters is normal coefficient of restitution. Do you know what does it depends on?

Thank you in advance!
Kinds regards.

Hi ahron.sanchez,

a good opportunity to learn the basics of a coupled CFD-DEM simulation might be the upcoming course (CFD and DEM course dates).

Otherwise I would recommend you to first get started with pure CFD, or DEM. Afterwards you will easily understand the combination of both.

Cheers,
Chris
