granular flow simulation

Zahoor · April 29, 2016, 07:58

hi everyone,
i am trying to simulate solids particles in a screw conveyor. i am using immersed solid method of cfx to rotate the screw in the fluid domain. now next i have to introduced solids particles.
how can i do that?
and is immersed solid method valid for this simulation.?

thanks

Sounds like a DEM issue. Consider using Edem from dem-solutions instead.

i didn't have to track individual particles i need to know about flow pattern only. problem is to study chocking.
