Simulation of lagrangian particles in a fluid flow

☑️ Particles are assumed to be spherical.

☑️ One-way coupling between fluid and particles is considered, so there is no particle collision modeling in this code.

☑️ The fluid velocity field has to be pre-set.

There are two similar codes available here:

lagrangian_particles: This code is setup based on the motion of small particles in a cellular flow field (Maxey, 1987).

lagrangian_particles_bubble: This is based on a flow of air bubbles in a two-dimensional channel.

In addition to the case setup, the difference between the codes lies in the calculation of the forces acting on the particles and the types of boundary condition available.

👩🏻‍🎓 These codes were developed during my graduate studies.
