Abstract

A novel finite element method for the 3d simulation of (many) particles in a Newtonian carrier liquid is presented. The methods features the celebrated one domain approach, a subspace projection method to account for the rigid body motion within the particles and operator splitting. Combined with local mesh refinement the method results in a fast and accurate, though conceptually simple to implement algorithm.

Validation is achieved using the sedimentation of one particle and comparing the resulting drag coefficient with theoretical and experimental results. Furthermore, a viscometer is considered, where the effective viscosity of a particle laden fluid is compared with analytic results.
