Proven applications are broad across petrochemical, chemical, power generation, and material processing, such as risers, cyclones, deep-bed reactors, CFB power plants, coal or biomass gasifiers, and filtration/settling.
Version 12.1 includes numerous enhancements: treatment of wall-particle interactions including attrition, LES turbulence and wall shear, the ability to dynamically re-read flow boundary conditions, and implicit treatment of liquid-solid flows.
Users requested special graphics to help understand their complex, three-dimension flows containing millions of particles; the graphical output now includes time-averaged particles and fluid mass flux.
Testing of this new version was the most thorough ever, and included large-scale experimental data from the PSRI.
