Height of sediment bed in pipe.

gauravkataria · June 6, 2016, 16:21

Hello everyone,

I am trying to model multiphase flow (liquid + solid particles) in a horizontal pipe where the particles have the tendency to settle down at the bottom, make a bed, and reduce the cross sectional area of flow. I tried to simulate it using fluent Eulerian+dense discrete phase model but it does not give me particle bed height. Can fluent handle this problem or do I have to use some other software like flow3d ?

Please help guys.. need it for my masters thesis..

Thanks and Regards,
Gaurav
