Syntax

Defined in couplingProperties dictionary.

forceModels
(
    SchillerNaumannDrag
);
SchillerNaumannDragProps
{
    velFieldName "U";
    treatForceExplicit switch1;
}

  • U = name of the finite volume fluid velocity field

  • switch1 = (optional, default false) sub model switch, see forceSubModel for details

Examples

forceModels
(
    SchillerNaumannDrag
);
SchillerNaumannDragProps
{
    velFieldName "U";
}

Description

The force model performs the calculation of forces (e.g. fluid-particle interaction forces) acting on each DEM particle. The SchillerNaumannDrag model is a model that calculates the particle based drag force following the correlation of Schiller and Naumann.
