EDEM 2015 HOW TO
The proposed model has significant impact in industrial applications as it provides insight on how to simulate large-scale applications rapidly and accurately. AIS 2015 is the next step in the continual evolution of traumatic injury classification and scaling. The results showed that the coupled model captures accurately the convective heat transfer from the fluid to the solid phase and demonstrated significant improvement in terms of simulation time. The 2015 Pinot Noir has softened nicely since I last tasted it, although the aromatics remain a bit reticent, most likely because of the 35 whole clusters. Fluid flow and particle-fluid interactions are solved by the CFD solver which exchanges information at regular intervals.


EDEM simulation provides engineers with crucial insight into how those materials will interact with their equipment. Powered by DEM, EDEM quickly and accurately simulates and analyzes the behavior of coal, mined ores, soils, fibers, grains, tablets, powders, and more.
EDEM 2015 SOFTWARE
Commercial codes from ANSYS and DEM Solutions were coupled to simulate heat transfer from the hot gases to the aggregate particles. EDEM is high-performance software for bulk and granular material simulation. A model of an aggregate drum dryer was used to produce hot mix asphalt and different computing configurations have been implemented to investigate the effect of GPU-CPU technology in such a complex simulation. Furthermore, different flighting configurations have been used to investigate the influence of the design to the drying process. The presented model is a continuation of previous work from Hobbs (2009) and focuses on demonstrating the capabilities and effectiveness of implementing the GPU combined with the Central Processing Unit (CPUs) technologies to run a complex industrial simulation. This work presents an accelerated simulation of heat and mass transfer by coupling Discrete Element Methodologies (DEMs) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), utilising Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) technology.
