DEM modelling of industrial granular flows: 3D case studies and the effect of particle shape on hopper discharge
While the discrete element method (DEM) is attracting increasing interest for the simulation of industrial granular flow, much of the previous DEM modelling has considered tow-dimensional (2D) flows and used circular particles. The inclusion of particle shape into DEM models is very important and allows many flow features, particularly in hoppers, to be more accurately reproduced than was possible when using only circular particles. Elongated particles are shown here to produce flow rates up to 30/100 lower than for circular particles and give flow patterns that are quite different.
