CFDEM®coupling - User Forum

Hello CFDEM community

In my case I need to model the settling of particles on a Filter.
Is it possible to represent a filter by a porous region through wihich particles do not diffuse?
Or are there any other possibilities to reduce the computational effort of Filter.

Thanks in advance

I have created a particle growth simulation in LIGGGHTS using fix command:
fix ID group-ID insert/pack seed seed_value distributiontemplate dist-ID general_keywords general_values pack_keywords pack_values ...

I want to shrink the same particle. The growth that has already happened, I want to undo the process overtime again.

I don't understand how to proceed it.

Hello,

I have a planar x - wall which I want to represent with spherical particles. I wrote the following lines:

Hi all,

I hope to make the fluid boundaries change with the DEM boundaries. In this case, the CFD boundary will cover the DEM boundary at any time. Is there any method to achieve this? Thanks !

Best regards

Hi,

Can you please suggest me where I can find the governing equation for the CFD-DEM coupling that LIGGGHTS uses. I need to use them for some publication.

Hi,
I found that the rho in settlingTest case is 10, and when I simply change it to 1000 which is supposed to be the density of water, the motion of particle becomes very unnature. The velocity becomes unrelastic large.

I found that this might be related to the drag force model, cause when I comment the force model de felice, and only keep the Archimedes force, the result seems to reflect correctly to the change of fluid density.

Could someone help with this question. Am I misunderstanding something about rho?

Dear CFDEM Community

I am using Unresolved CFDEM to simulate particle infiltration in bed. I am facing problem now to simulate the case for larger duration due to high memory requirements as number of particles increase as simulation progresses and eventually gets killed even on large Linux-clusters. I know that Unresolved CFDEM has limit in terms of number of particles (oder of ~10^7) but my simulation gets killed despite total number of particles are less than the limit specified above.

Hello everyone.
By investigating the Ergun test case among the tutorials I noticed that if I run the case in noSlip conditions the pressure drops decrease, why is that? The no-slip condition should add an additional source of dissipation for the flow. How can the pressure drops decrease if I'm adding friction sources to the fluid flow?
Can you help me understand this effect, please?

In the periodic channel flow of cfdemSolverPiso there is neither any Pressure gradient nor any inclined plane gravity force - so I could not understand what is the driving factor of this flow.

P.S. I am an extreme newbie (2nd Year Chemical Engineering Undergraduate Student). Please help me to understand the concepts :)
