A Numerical Method for Transient Tracking of Sediment Particles in Dredge Pump
In order to transiently solve the transient edgewater shoes movement of sediment particles in dredge pumps, a modified algorithm is realized based on the discrete phase model in ANSYS Fluent.The granular phase volume fraction solved by using the Eulerian (granular)-Eulerian (liquid) two phases flow method and the Huilin-Gidaspow drag force laws are
