Test case for fines transport through packed particle column

  1. fill a cylinder with sperical particles (parDEMrun.sh)
  2. create CFD mesh (mesh.sh)
  3. introduce gas flow with fines (parCFDDEMrun.sh)

Comments:

After particles have settled, they remain frozen to their positions. The pressure drop can be monitored with postProcessing/probes1/0/p. When all small pores in the particle bed are clogged, no further deposition takes place and the pressure drop does not increase any further.
