Computational Fluid Dynamics and Discrete Element Modelling

CFD and DEM analysis provides great potential for saving time in the design process and therefore proves more cost-effective and quicker when compared to conventional testing for data acquisition.

Greenbank is able to undertake modelling of fluid flow problems, particle tracking, particle control, chemical reactions, temperature and combustion processes.

By validating computer modelling against existing data, Greenbank can identify the optimum positions for devices in pipe networks as well as identifying areas

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

CFD modelling is a flow simulation technique for two- and multi-phase flows that allows the fluid flow around or through any product or flow system. CFD allows any derived property of the fluid flow such as velocity, density, temperature, pressure and more to be fully detailed at any particular location within the flow system.

CFD flow simulations to a dynamic client specification can be deployed early in the design cycle to greatly accelerate the product development and optimisation of a process or a product.

The company utilises Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Discrete Element Modelling (DEM) to supplement design and development of a variety of systems. The numerical solution and algebraical equation methods Greenbank use have been developed in-house and correlated with both experimental data, as proven on our own test rig, and real-time data provided by our customers.

Discrete Element Modelling (DEM)

DEM modelling offers the opportunity to better understand the flow dynamics leading to improvements in equipment design and operation that can potentially lead to large increases in equipment and process efficiency, throughput and/or product quality. DEM is particularly useful in modelling and solving materials-handling problems, including the reduction of dust created by poor handling.

The Group’s engineers utilise CFD and DEM to benchmark problems and design solutions. Supported by user defined functions (UDFs) that have been developed in-house over 20 years of practical experience, the properties of flow systems can be analysed, designed and optimised without the need for extensive testing or large-scale prototypes.
