<p>The divided voidFraction model is supposed to be used when a particle (or its representation) is in the size range of a CFD cell. The particle has radius R and it’s volume is divided in 29 non-overlapping regions of equal volume. The centroids of these volumes are then used to reproduce each volume. The first volume is a sphere with the center coinciding with the particle center. Radius of this subsphere can be found as follows:</p>
|
|
<img alt="_images/voidfractionModel_divided_pic2.png" class="align-center" src="_images/voidfractionModel_divided_pic2.png" />
|
|
<p>The rest volume is a spherical layer that must is divided in 2 layers of equal volume. Position of the border between these two spherical layers in radial direction can be easily obtained:</p>
|
|
<img alt="_images/voidfractionModel_divided_pic3.png" class="align-center" src="_images/voidfractionModel_divided_pic3.png" />
|
|
<p>Each of these spherical layers is later divided in 14 elements of equal volume. Position of the centroid point in radial direction of each volume in the first spherical layer is as follows</p>
|
|
<img alt="_images/voidfractionModel_divided_pic4.png" class="align-center" src="_images/voidfractionModel_divided_pic4.png" />
|
|
<p>Similarly, for the second spherical layer remembering that the external radius is the particle radius:</p>
|
|
<img alt="_images/voidfractionModel_divided_pic5.png" class="align-center" src="_images/voidfractionModel_divided_pic5.png" />
|
|
<p>The region of influence of a particle can be increased artificially by “porosity”, which blows up the particles, but keeps their volume (for voidfraction calculation) constant.</p>
|
|
<p>The particle volume occupied in the CFD domain can be adjusted by the parameter “weight”, using</p>
|
|

|
|
<p>In the basic implementation of solvers, the void fraction is calculated based on all particles. Depending on the solver used, the void fraction calculation is also performed for a certain type of particles.
|
|
The void fraction calculation is based on a three-step approach (reset, set and interpolate), i.e., the void fraction is time interpolated from a previous and a next void fraction field. Appropriate names for these fields have to be specified in the sub-dictionaries voidFracFieldNamesPrev and voidFracFieldNamesNext in the couplingProperties dictionary.</p>
