EDEM-Fluent coupling problem.

fang yanwei

Hi,

I want to implant a new drag model in EDEM-Fluent coupling process. But I didn't find document about how to modify the coupling code.

Is there any tutorial about code modification?

Hi Fang

For an EDEM-Fluent coupling, the drag forces are calculated by Fluent and not EDEM. For any custom drag forces calculated by Fluent, I think the Fluent support team should be able to help you.

For EDEM custom drag forces (which are not used for coupling, but for EDEM-only simulations), please refer to this tutorial: https://community.altair.com/community/en/edem-api-tutorial-4-field-data-coupling?id=kb_article&sysparm_article=KB0037692

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
