Review and implementation of CFD-DEM applied to chemical process systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an introduction to coupled computational fluid dynamics (CFD-DEM) modeling in process engineering systems, including heat and mass transfer and long range forces, and review the major researches in simulation of two-phase processes such as drying, coating, granulation, crystallization, chemical reactions (including combustion, gasification and pyrolysis) and mixing.

Discrete numerical model for granular assemblies.

Peter Cundall, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1979 - 
TL;DR: The distinct element method as mentioned in this paper is a numerical model capable of describing the mechanical behavior of assemblies of discs and spheres and is based on the use of an explicit numerical scheme in which the interaction of the particles is monitored contact by contact and the motion of the objects modelled particle by particle.

A bonded-particle model for rock

TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical model for rock is proposed in which the rock is represented by a dense packing of non-uniform-sized circular or spherical particles that are bonded together at their contact points and whose mechanical behavior is simulated by the distinct element method using the two-and three-dimensional discontinuum programs PFC2D and PFC3D.
