Exploring Altair’s Solutions for Granular, Fluid, and Coupled Fluid-Particle Applications

Granular materials and fluids are everywhere and present challenges to engineers looking to optimize their equipment design and processes. In this webinar, we cover:

• Simulation of granular flows using Altair EDEM, a leading Discrete Element Method (DEM) software;
• Combining EDEM™ and CFD using Altair AcuSolve™ to gain insight into complex fluid-particle systems;
• Extended capabilities for large-scale fluid-particle processes, such as fluidized beds, using Barracuda Virtual Reactor™.

Examples are shown for systems dominated by particle interactions, pure fluid dynamics, and coupled multiphase systems, including those with heat transfer and chemical reactions. Guidance is provided about matching applications with the right software tool(s).
