CFD-DEM Flow visualization

[MuSaNgO82]

Dear all, I am running a CFD-DEM pseudo 2D fluidized bed case but I am having challenges viewing the fluidization pattern in paraview as the resolution looks quite poor and you would mistake it for a TFM simulation. I have uploaded a screenshot for your perusal

. The VTK output within MFIX however shows better resolution. Secondly how do I extract particle property data? In particular I would like to obtain time averaged particle velocity at certain points within the domain, rms particle velocity and granular temperature. The gas or fluid phase properties are relatively straight forward to extract from the output files.

Please don’t double post. See my comment here:

Results of dem?

So you are showing EP_g on the eulerian grid. Do you want to show the particles? If you want to show the particles, you need to output the particle data (*.vtp) files. You can load that into paraview and show the particles with Point Gaussian. Make sure to change the Gaussian Radius to match your particles. [image]

Yes onlyjus I just want the particle data. Thanks for your explanation.
