Hello every one.
I hope you are doing well.
How can I measure particle deposition in tube?
Is there any way to see the attachment between particle and the wall?

Best,
Fatemeh

    Hi Fatemeh,

     

    I'm not sure if this would help but you can create/import a grid bin that's very thin and very close to the wall and with that bin you can analyze things like total number of particles, total mass and particle size distribution. You can also study things like number of particle-wall contacts.

    Also, if your particles stick to the walls make sure you're using a contact model that captures this behavior (like Hertz-Mindilin + JKR or EEPA). Hope this helps you.

     

    Best regards,
