Multi-level coarse-grained discrete element method modeling of cylinder particle flow in a rotating drum

The coarse-grained discrete element method(DEM)is probably a feasible option for simulating an actual drum-type biomass boiler,which contains over 10 million cylinder particles.A multi-level study was conducted based on particle and coarse-grained level data to evaluate the adequacy of the coarse-grained approach in terms of geometrical characteristics,kinematic features,and dynamic properties.Two scaling laws for contact parameters were used and compared during the simulations.The results show that the coarse-grained approach can accurately predict the positions of the free surface and active-passive interface,the mixing index,and the orientation properties.Deviations in the velocity fields may occur due to the worse flowability of coarse-grained particles near the free surface.The efficiency is significantly improved by the coarse-grained model compared with the corresponding original case(the same DEM code without a coarse-grained model was used for the original simulations).
