Description
|
||||
This code is designed to realize coupled CFD-DEM simulations using LIGGGHTS
|
||||
and OpenFOAM. Note: this code is not part of OpenFOAM (see DISCLAIMER).
|
||||
\*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
CFDEM coupling provides an open source parallel coupled CFD-DEM framework
|
||||
combining the strengths of LIGGGHTS DEM code and the Open Source
|
||||
CFD package OpenFOAM(R)(*). The CFDEMcoupling toolbox allows to expand
|
||||
standard CFD solvers of OpenFOAM(R)(*) to include a coupling to the DEM
|
||||
code LIGGGHTS. In this toolbox the particle representation within the
|
||||
CFD solver is organized by "cloud" classes. Key functionalities are organised
|
||||
in sub-models (e.g. force models, data exchange models, etc.) which can easily
|
||||
be selected and combined by dictionary settings.
|
||||
|
||||
The coupled solvers run fully parallel on distributed-memory clusters.
|
||||
|
||||
Features are:
|
||||
|
||||
- its modular approach allows users to easily implement new models
|
||||
- its MPI parallelization enables to use it for large scale problems
|
||||
- the "forum"_lws on CFD-DEM gives the possibility to exchange with other
|
||||
users / developers
|
||||
- the use of GIT allows to easily update to the latest version
|
||||
- basic documentation is provided
|
||||
|
||||
The file structure:
|
||||
|
||||
- "src" directory including the source files of the coupling toolbox and models
|
||||
- "applications" directory including the solver files for coupled CFD-DEM simulations
|
||||
- "doc" directory including the documentation of CFDEMcoupling
|
||||
- "tutorials" directory including basic tutorial cases showing the functionality
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Details on installation are given on the "www.cfdem.com"
|
||||
|
||||
The functionality of this CFD-DEM framwork is described via "tutorial cases" showing
|
||||
how to use different solvers and models.
|
||||
|
||||
CFDEMcoupling stands for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) -
|
||||
Discrete Element Method (DEM) coupling.
|
||||
|
||||
CFDEMcoupling is an open-source code, distributed freely under the terms of the

||||

|
||||
|
||||
Core development of CFDEMcoupling is done by
|
||||
Christoph Goniva and Christoph Kloss, both at DCS Computing GmbH, 2012
