Hi,

With the solver "twoPhaseEulerFoam" of OF version 2.3.x the pressure drop over a packed bed (inflow velocity < min. fluidization velocity) is too high. With the solver "compressibleTwoPhaseEulerFoam" of OF version 2.2.x the pressure drop was predicted correctly for inflow velocities below the min. fluidization velocity.

Does anyone has an idea why?

Thank you.
