摘要
In this paper, a new method-Distributed La-grange Multiplier/fictitiousdomain (DLM) method for partic-ulate flows was improved. A rectangular mesh was introduced todiscretize the domain, and the buoyant force was considered for predicting the positions ofparticles. In order to validate the presented algorithm, the sedimentation of a single circularparticle was simulated using different mesh sizes and time steps firstly. The results show that thesimulation is independent of the mesh size as well as the time step. And then, the interactionsbetween two falling particles, including drafting, kissing and tumbling, and the sedimentation of 18particles also have been simulated with the code.
