CFD-DEM Analysis of Particle Attrition in a Jet in a Fluidised Bed [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In fluidised bed processes, the solids are in vigorous motion and thus inevitably subjected to mechanical stresses due to inter-particle and particle-wall impacts.

A Dynamic Coarse Grain Discrete Element Method for Gas-Solid Fluidized Beds by Considering Particle-Group Crushing and Polymerization

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
The discrete element method (DEM) coupled with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is used extensively for the numerical simulation of gas-solid fluidized beds.

Numerical Investigation of Evaporation Induced Self-Assembly of Sub-Micron Particles Suspended in Water

open access: yes, 2016
Self-assembly of sub-micron particles suspended in a water film is investigated numerically. The liquid medium is allowed to evaporate leaving only the sub-micron particles.

CFD DEM Analysis of a Dry Powder Inhaler

open access: yesVolume 2: Computational Fluid Dynamics, 2019
Abstract Dry powder inhalers (DPIs), used as a means for pulmonary drug delivery, typically contain a combination of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and significantly larger carrier particles. The micro-sized drug particles — which have a strong propensity to aggregate and poor aerosolization performance — mixed with significantly

A co-located partitions strategy for parallel CFD–DEM couplings [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced Powder Technology, 2018
In this work, a new partition-collocation strategy for the parallel execution of CFD--DEM couplings is investigated. Having a good parallel performance is a key issue for an Eulerian-Lagrangian software that aims to be applied to solve industrially significant problems, as the computational cost of these couplings is one of their main drawback.

A Review of Heat Transfer and Numerical Modeling for Scrap Melting in Steelmaking Converters

open access: yesMetals
Steel is an important product in many engineering sectors; however, steelmaking remains one of the largest CO2 emitters. Therefore, new governmental policies drive the steelmaking industry toward a cleaner and more sustainable operation such as the gas ...

Diffusion-Based Coarse Graining in Hybrid Continuum-Discrete Solvers: Applications in CFD-DEM [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this work, a coarse-graining method previously proposed by the authors in a companion paper based on solving diffusion equations is applied to CFD-DEM simulations, where coarse graining is used to obtain solid volume fraction, particle phase velocity,

Investigation of Oxygen‐Free Wetting Behavior of Aluminum on Copper via Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Experiments

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The wettability of aluminum droplets (Al) on different copper substrates (Cu), where liquid Al spreads on solid Cu surfaces to form a liquid–solid interface, is studied numerically and experimentally. The experimental and numerical results show good agreement in the fast‐spreading regime.
