In this publication, Transport Disengaging Height correlations are evaluated across Geldart Groups, polydispersity and velocities.
A comprehensive experimental database for travelling fluidized bed model testing is extended
The chemical reactions and rate equations solved by Barracuda VR can be changed on restart. However, the GUI currently does not support this advanced restart feature. This post describes how…
When running a script in Linux or Cygwin, it is necessary to give the script executable permissions. This post shows how to set the permissions so a script can run.…
Operating systems use the PATH environment variable to find programs. The PATH environment variable stores a list of directories in which the operating system will search for programs. Most of…
In Barracuda simulations, the particle size distribution (PSD) of particles crossing a flux plane is often of interest. This post shows how to calculate the PSD when the “Subdivide by…
Thermal Wall BCs in Barracuda allow heat transfer to and from the system, depending on the relative temperatures of the walls and fluid in computational cells. This post discusses how…
Combining multiple views of simulation results into a single animation is a commonly used technique during post-processing of Barracuda results. The MULTIFRAME.tcl script was written to make this task easier,…
The default Cygwin installation included with Barracuda VR includes a minimal set of packages to support the operation of GMV on Windows. For some tasks, it is necessary to install…
