forceModel interface command :h3
[Syntax:]
Defined in "couplingProperties"_CFDEMcoupling_dicts.html#couplingProperties
dictionary.
forceModels
(
interface
);
interfaceProps
\{
VOFvoidfractionFieldName "alpha";
alphaThreshold value1;
sigma value2;
theta value3;
\} :pre
{alpha} = name of the finite volume fluid volume fraction field in a VOF simulation :ulb,l
{value1} = parameter used to define the distance of influence of the model :l
{value2} = fluid gas surface tension :l
{value3} = Three-phase contact angle for interface force :l
:ule
[Examples:]
forceModels
(
interface
);
interfaceProps
\{
VOFvoidfractionFieldName "alpha";
alphaThreshold 0.54;
sigma 0.07;
theta 1.12;
\} :pre
[Description:]
The force model performs the calculation of forces (e.g. fluid-particle
interaction forces) acting on each DEM particle. The {interface} model is a
model that calculates the particle-fluid-gas interfacial force.
(see "Wierink et al. (2011)"_#Wierink2011)
[Restrictions:]
Only for VOF simulations.
