fluid solver in flow.engine for suspensions

Asked by Rioual

Hello,

My question concerns the flow engine and is the following of question 679420
(https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/679420)

Apparently, it makes no difference for the fluid solver if particles are in
contact or not.
There is less validation of the local hydraulic conductivity model for very
dilute suspensions,according to Bruno.
Can you give me an idea of the range of volume fraction of particles of the suspension
for which the flow model has been validated, in yade ??

Best wishes,

Fr.

Hi, it has been validated on the basis of permeameter tests, where
particles are generaly in contacts.
If you heard about data on relative movement between fluid and particles
without contacts in semi dilute regimes please let me know, that would be a
very good test case.

Hello,

  I think that the localized fluidization in a saturated granular medium has been modelized with good success compared to
experiments (?) so man can be rather optimistic...
I will let you know in case of other benchmarking in a more dilute case,

Best wishes

In localized fluidization a cavity is forming. The large contrast in
conductivity between the cavity and the dense regions makes the result
nearly independant of conductivity in the cavity: therein the pressure is
uniform. It doesn't mean that the conductivity in the cavity is correct in
the model, it's simply irrelevant to the overall process.

Thanks Chareyre, that solved my question.
