<P><B>Description:</B>
</P>
<P>The force model performs the calculation of forces (e.g. fluid-particle interaction forces) acting on each DEM particle. The KochHillDrag model is a model that calculates the particle based drag force following the correlation of Koch & Hill (2001) (see van Buijtenen et al. (2011): "Numerical and experimental study on multiple-spout fluidized beds" ,ChemEngScience).
