Detailed Description

template<class CloudType>
class Foam::SphereDragForce< CloudType >

Particle-drag model wherein drag forces (per unit carrier-fluid velocity) are dynamically computed based on empirical expressions.

\[ \mathrm{F}_\mathrm{D} = \frac{3}{4} \frac{\mu_c\,\mathrm{C}_\mathrm{D}\,\mathrm{Re}_p}{\rho_p \, d_p^2} \]

with

\[ \mathrm{C}_\mathrm{D} = \frac{24}{\mathrm{Re}_p} \left(1 + \frac{1}{6}\mathrm{Re}_p^{2/3} \right) \quad \mathrm{if} \quad \mathrm{Re}_p \leq 1000 \]

\[ \mathrm{C}_\mathrm{D} = 0.424 \quad \mathrm{if} \quad \mathrm{Re}_p > 1000 \]

and

\[ \mathrm{Re}_p = \frac{\rho_c \, | \mathbf{u}_\mathrm{rel} | \, d_p}{\mu_c} \]

where

\( \mathrm{F}_\mathrm{D} \)	=	Drag force per carrier-fluid velocity [kg/s]
\( \mathrm{C}_\mathrm{D} \)	=	Particle drag coefficient
\( \mathrm{Re}_p \)	=	Particle Reynolds number
\( \rho_p \)	=	Particle mass density
\( \mu_c \)	=	Dynamic viscosity of carrier at the cell occupying particle
\( d_p \)	=	Particle diameter
\( \rho_c \)	=	Density of carrier at the cell occupying particle
\( \mathbf{u}_\mathrm{rel} \)	=	Relative velocity between particle and carrier

Constraints:

Particles remain spherical throughout the force computation, hence no particle distortion.
Applicable to particles with a spatially homogeneous distribution.

Usage

Minimal example by using constant/<CloudProperties>:

subModels
{
    particleForces
    {
        sphereDrag;
    }
}

where the entries mean:

Property	Description	Type	Reqd	Deflt
`type`	Type name: sphereDrag	word	yes	-

Note

\(\mathrm{F}_\mathrm{D}\) is weighted with the particle mass/density at the stage of a function return, so that it can later be normalised with the effective mass, if necessary (e.g. when using virtual-mass forces).
