Interim user's manual for FLUFIX/MOD1: A computer program for fluid-solids hydrodynamics

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6337503
This report describes FLUFIX/MOD1, a computer program that was developed as a two-dimensional analytical tool, based on a two-fluid hydrodynamic model, for application to fluid-flow simulation in fluid-solids systems. The field equations that constitute the two-fluid model used in FLUFIX/MOD1 and the constitutive relationships required to close this system of equations, as well as the finite-difference equations that approximate these equations and their solution procedure, are presented and discussed. The global structure of FLUFIX/MOD1 that implements this solution procedure is discussed. The input data for FLUFIX/MOD1 are given, and a sample problem for a fluidized bed is described. 47 refs., 15 figs., 8 tabs.
