visualization of CFDEM results in Paraview

Submitted by shademani on Mon, 04/29/2019 - 20:59

Hello all,
I am a new CFDEM user and I would like to see the result of SolverIB in Paraview. I used "reconstructPar -noLagrangian " in CFD directory.
However, there is an error. Could you help me to understand what is my problem?
I have attached a shot screen from the error.

Anyone can save my fluidized bed sumulation

Submitted by zekunwang on Fri, 04/19/2019 - 05:16

Recently, I encountered a problem when simulating a fluidized bed with temperature convection. The expermental setups are strictly set according to the paper (See Exp.pdf), where powder diameter is 1mm, with 57296 sand particles in a 0.08m*0.015m*0.25m chamber, the CFD mesh is mad according to the published paper as well, which is 32*6*100. I chose model type A and Gidaspow drag force model and the solver cfdemSolverPisoScalar. However, the powder bed cannot be fluidized even the inlet gas velocity (1.2m/s) has already exceeded the fludized velocity.

Hi, everyone.
I try to execute a coupled simulation with the cfdemSolverIB after I use decomposePar to divide it into four processors. Unfortunately, I receive following error:

--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
[3] keyword voidFractionModelProps is undefined in dictionary "xxx/CFD/processor0 (1,2,3)/constant/couplingProperties"
[3] file: xxx/CFD/processor0/constant/couplingProperties from line 0 to line 0.

CFDEM RESTART

Submitted by Donald Trump on Wed, 04/10/2019 - 04:55

Hey everyone, I am currently using High performance computing cluster to run cfdem program, if I want to restart the process for many times, what process should I follow here. How am I gonna use restart files generated once the program was interrupted. I know how to restart the program for once, but not sure about restarting it for many times.

Thanks!
