Coal combustion-DPM iteration-num tracked,escaped ...
 

Hello,
i was working on combustion modeling of coal in furnace. my question is related to DPM iteration report, would you please guide me.

In the DPM iteration report
num tracked =107250 , escaped = 102803, abroted =0 , traped =0 , evapoorated =0 , incomplete =4447

Whats the physical meaning?

Can we consider these num. as a satisfactory simmulation of the discrete phase?

Should be the total num of escaped similar to the total num of tracked?

Is there any numbering criteria for each, escaped , abroted , traped , evapoorated and incomplete in modeling?

Thank you in advance.

Incomplete particles has to be less, You can control it by increasing the max number of steps in DPM settings. Escaped means particle is passing through the domain without any change in them.

Thank you Kushal for your reply.
