forceModel_Archimedes command :h3

[Syntax:]

Defined in couplingProperties dictionary.

forceModels
(
    Archimedes
);
ArchimedesProps
\{
    gravityFieldName "gravity";
\}; :pre

{gravity} = name of the finite volume gravity field :ulb,l
:ule

[Examples:]

forceModels
(
    Archimedes
);
ArchimedesProps
\{
    gravityFieldName "g";
\} :pre

[Description:]

The force model performs the calculation of forces (e.g. fluid-particle interaction forces) acting on each DEM particle. The Archimedes model is a model that calculates the Archimedes' volumetric lift force stemming from density difference of fluid and particle.

[Restrictions:]

none.
