Hello, everybodyIn EDEM analyst, there are total force and coupling force. (In a CFD-DEM simulation)The coupling force is (lift and drag force)The total force is (p-p and coupling force)Is there any way to calculate P-W force?Regards,Fatemeh
Hi Fatemeh,
There are a couple of ways to calculate particle-wall forces. You can query the Geometry force in EDEM either in the Analyst directly or via an export data query. If you choose geometry there is the option for force and you can select the specific geometry element you want. The forces exported will be the forces on the geometry due to the particles.
Or you can look at contacts in the same area. For contacts you can choose particle-geometry for the element 1 and element 2 of the query, there are then the options to export Normal and Tangential forces.
The e-learning Analyst section gives an overview of the options:
