How to create multiple spherical particles with different radius at once in EDEM
Hello,
It is easy to manually create 5 single sphere particles with different radius. However, it is difficult to manually create dozens, or even hundreds of single sphere particles with different radius.
Therefore, I was just wondering if there was a quick way to create dozens, or even hundreds of single sphere particles of different radius at once. Then, i can use these particles with different radius to create a meta-particle.
Kind regards,
Chao
Hi Chao,
you can use size distribution option based on the distribution you require.
The available size distribution options are shown in below picture
For example: in your case I might use user defined with scaling by Radius option as shown in below picture

Hi Prasad A,
Many thanks for your help.
However, if I create 100 single-sphere particles with different physical radius, and then keep the size distribution of all the single-sphere particles as fixed, and then use these 100 single-sphere particles with different physical radius to generate a metal particle. I was wondering is there any way to achieve this instead of manually input.
Kind regards,
Chao
