Collision & Coalescence

Particle/Wall Interaction
! Assumptions (hard sphere model)
! particles are spheres ! particle deformation is neglected ! walls are smooth ! Coulombs friction law ! once particle stops sliding, no further sliding

MCEN 6228 Multiphase Flow

! Split interaction into


! compression phase (1) ! recovery phase (2)

Particle/Wall Interaction
! Solution

MCEN 6228 Multiphase Flow

! use impulse equations (3 translational velocities + 3 angular velocities) ! use boundary conditions + friction law (coefficient f) ! introduce coefficient of restitution e
recovery phase impulse

compression phase impulse

! sliding may stop in compression, recovery phase, or not at all

Particle/Wall Interaction
