2 ِDispersed + 1 continuous phase ??

Farzam · February 16, 2018, 15:05

Hi,
I'm trying to simulate a pool with 1 inlet and 1 outlet. Inlet water carries some sediments (volume fraction=1%). As the pool is large, I neglect the effect of sediment on flow, so I use Dispersed multiphase model. It converges very well with 1 dispersed phase, but it doesn't with 2 dispersed phase!

Does anyone know if DMP has the capability of considering 2 dispersed phase with 1 continuous phase?

Thanks,

Why use the DMP model for this, are there multiple phases? Why not just add a passive scalar instead of using DMP?
