Particle Tracking Module

Type of Analysis

From user manual

- The particle-tracking (or Lagrangian) module enables the simulation of poly-dispersed particu- late flows, by calculating the trajectories of individual particles, mainly characterized by their diameter and density (if no heat nor mass transfer between particle and fluid are activated).

Results are in term of statiscs distribution of the particle in the calculation domain

- As a consequence, is is important to emphasize that the most important (and physically meaning- ful) results of a particle-tracking calculation following the Moments/PDF approach are statistics. Volume and surface statistics, steady or unsteady, can be calculated. Individual particle trajec- tories (as 1D, EnSight-readable cases) and displacements (as EnSight-readable animations) can also be provided, but only for illustrative purposes.
