Simulation of Corrosion using EDEM

Hello. Im a final year student currently taking my degree and my final year project is the study of wear rate in an Inline Two-Phase Simulator. Currently, im in a pickle as to how to simulate the wear rate of the Two-Phase Simulator, precisely corrosion due to concentration of CO2 and other present gasses inside the oil mixture. As far as I know, there is no mention of simulation of corrosion simulation for edem as it involves particle trajectory. There were mentions of erosion simulation but thats a different case.

    Hi,

    Corrosion isn't something that we have typically looked at because usually it would be a CFD code that is used to simulated chemical reactions. Are you coupling with another code? E.g. AcuSolve / Fluent? If so I'd have thought it would be easier to do any kind of chemical reactions from the CFD side.
