Hello Everyone,

I am dealing with non spherical particles and wanted to know if any collision model exists in literature for arbitrary shaped particles. I can see that OF v2.3 has a drag model for non-spherical particles. Does this consider the particles to be arbitrarily shaped? Does OF or CFX or FLUENT offer a collision model for such particles. Also, I would really appreciate if someone could direct me to some articles on non spherical particles (specifically their collision models).

Thanks in Advance!

Best,
Nadish
