Computational Study Of Twin Circular Particles Settling In Fluid Using A Fictitious Boundary Approach, Imran Abbas, Kamran Usman

International Journal of Emerging Multidisciplinaries: Mathematics

The objective of this study is to examine the performance of two adjacent solid particles as they settle in close nearness, with a focus on comprehending the intricate interactions between the particles and the surrounding fluid during the process of sediment transport. Simulations are conducted with different initial horizontal spacing between particles and Reynolds numbers (Re). The findings of the simulations highlight the impact of the initial spacing between particles and Reynolds numbers (Re) as key factors influencing the ultimate settling velocity and separation distance. In general, when the initial spacing between particles is small and the Reynolds number (Re) …
