Fluidised bed Simulation with OpenFOAM's twoPhaseEulerFoam solver from OpenFOAM tutorial. Hot air is introduced from the bottom with particles assumed to be of spherical shape and constant radius. Air turbulence is modeled using k-Epsilon while for particles kinetic theory model is employed. It is based on the assumption that when particle motion is dominated by collision interactions, notions from gas kinetic theory can be exploited to deal with the turbulence resulting from particle streaming (kinetic contribution) and direct collisions (collision contribution) (ref kinetic theory: "Derivation, implementation, and validation of computer simulation models for gas-solid fluidized beds", B.G.M. van Wachem, Ph.D. Thesis, Delft University of Technology, Amsterdam, 2000)
