DEM Prediction of Industrial and Geophysical Particle Flows
Particle scale simulation of industrial particle flows using DEM (Discrete Element Method) offers the opportunity for better understanding of the flow dynamics leading to improvements in equipment design and operation. These can potentially lead to large increases in equipment and process efficiency,throughput and/or product quality. Industrial applicanons can be characterized as large, involving complex particulate behaviour in typically complex geometries. The critical importance of particle shape on the behaviour of granular systems is discussed. We then consider in detail DEM models of several industrial applications.
