Journal ArticleDOI
Models, algorithms and validation for opensource DEM and CFD-DEM
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a multi-purpose CFD-DEM framework to simulate coupled fluid-granular systems, where the motion of the particles is resolved by means of the Discrete Element Method (DEM), and the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method is used to calculate the interstitial fluid flow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of rolling friction on single spout fluidized bed simulation
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of rolling friction on the dynamics in a single spout fluidized bed using Discrete Element Method (DEM) coupled to Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD).
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient implementation of superquadric particles in Discrete Element Method within an open-source framework
TL;DR: An efficient C++ implementation of superquadric particles within the open-source and parallel DEM package LIGGGHTS is presented and adequacy of the super quadric shape model and robustness of the implemented superquadrics DEM code are shown.
Journal ArticleDOI
Filtered and heterogeneity‐based subgrid modifications for gas–solid drag and solid stresses in bubbling fluidized beds
TL;DR: In this paper, two different approaches to constitutive relations for filtered two-fluid models (TFM) of gas-solid flows are deduced, based on the assumption of the formation of subgrid heterogeneities inside the suspension phase of fluidized beds.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comprehensive frictional-kinetic model for gas–particle flows: Analysis of fluidized and moving bed regimes
TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive frictional-kinetic model for collisional and frictional gas-particle flows is presented, where the model treats gas and particles as a continuum and the kinetic-collisional stresses are closed using kinetic theory of granular flows (KTGF).
