Abstract
In the framework of computational studies of particulate multiphase flow systems, either dilute or dense, particle–particle as well as particle–wall collisions need to be considered, which in the case of nonspherical particle shapes still presents a computational challenge. In this study, we present an efficient numerical implementation of a novel superellipsoidal particle collision model that can be used in general fluid flows. The superellipsoid shape formulation can be viewed as an extension of spherical or ellipsoidal shapes and can be used to represent spherical, ellipsoidal, cylindrical, diamond-like and cubic particles by varying solely five shape parameters. In this context, we present a fast, stable Newton–Raphson-based method for modeling frictional collisions of nonspherical superellipsoidal particles, and demonstrate the performance of our algorithms.
