lagrangian solid particle tracking - OFv2.1
Hello,
I'm using OpenFOAM v2.1 and I would like to visualize solid particle movements inside water tank. I would like to do it in a simple way, only one-way coupling would be needed (low concentration of small particles), and particle injection at the inlet of the tank I tried to use some solvers available on the internet but none of them is working. I know only basic C++ and I'm not able to create my own solver, even if it may look simple for you. Does anyone know a simple way to visualize solid particle movements with OpenFOAM 2.1 ? Thanks in advance |
Sorry for restarting this thread but were you successful in finding a solver? I am interested in knowing it.

you can work with DPMFoam in OF2.3.0 or OF2.2.x
this solver considers two phases of water and solid and track the movement of them: http://www.openfoam.org/version2.3.0/dpm.php |
Hi Ali,
I had a look at DPMFoam, but from its description it seems that it handles compressible fluids and solids and not incompressible fluids and solids which I want to work with. |
DPMFoam is a Transient solver for the coupled transport of a single kinematic particle cloud including the effect of the volume fraction of particles on the
incompresible continuous phase.: as in transportProp we have: Code:
transportModel Newtonian; #include "PhaseIncompressibleTurbulenceModel.H" |
Hi,
Is this the Goldschmidt tutorial you are referring to? As in that properties of air are mentioned. |
this is not from "Goldschmidt"
but "Goldschmidt" is the same as what i wrote but for air and no other difference |
Thanks Ali for the clarification
