Particles encountered in nature and engineering practice are normally not spherical but of
irregular shapes. Particle shape plays a key role in determining the behaviour of bulk solids …

Dense particulate reaction system (DPRS) is quite common in many engineering fields such
as energy conversion, petro-chemical processing, mineral processing, chemical …

Various fundamental studies based on a turbulent duct flow have gained popularity
including heat transfer, magnetohydrodynamics as well as particle-laden transportation. An …

The soft-sphere model design of the discrete element method is based on types of dynamic
systems for determining the contact forces. These forces are computed considering the …

The dynamics of dilute micron-sized spherical inertial particles in turbulent duct flows is
studied by means of direct numerical simulations of the carrier phase turbulence with one …

It is important to understand the evolution process of an explosion flow field for accident
prevention. This study investigated the effects of low coal dust concentrations on gas …

Abstract A combined Thermal Lattice Boltzmann Method (TLBM)–Immersed Boundary
Method (IBM)–Discrete Element Method (DEM) scheme was proposed to simulate fluid …

This paper presents a study of the characteristics of a 1–50 μm particle deposition in a rib-
roughened channel using a combined computational fluid dynamics-discrete element …

Behavioral modification effects for particle-laden turbulent flows are developed and
assessed through high-fidelity modeling using an implementation of the mirroring ghost-cell …

It is well known that the number of particles should be scaled up to enable industrial scale
simulation. The calculations are more computationally intensive when the motion of the …
