Sedimentation of spherical particles. †
- Yellow and Red particles are identical. Different colors are used just for visualization purpose.
- Simulation parameters
- CFD Lattice: 256 x 256 x 512 mesh
- Number of Particles: N = 3,204
- Diameter of Particles: D = 10 mesh
- Volume Fraction: Φ = 0.05
- Particles Reynolds No.: Re ~ 1
- Number of Iteration Steps: 25,000
- Computation Time: 2.5 Days on Intel Core-i7-3.2GHz (with ICC+MKL+OMP)
- To reproduce this simulation
- Input UDF file: gravity.udf
- Command (remove "./" if you use Windows command prompt)
> mkdir ./avs_ch
> mkdir ./avs_ch/avs
> ./kapsel -Igravity.udf -Ooutput.udf -Ddefine.udf -Rrestart.udf
- Visualization
- You can make the same animation as above with particleshow_gravity.py to be loaded from GOURMET. Open "output.udf"
- Instead, you can make a similar animation with particleshow.py to be loaded from AVS/Express.
