How Barracuda Virtual Reactor Compliments DEM for Large-Scale, Thermal, Reacting, Multiphase Systems

This presentation from Altair’s ATCx DEM virtual conference explores how the Barracuda Virtual Reactor technology is used to complement DEM simulation for large scale, thermal, reacting systems. Barracuda Virtual Reactor, available through the Altair Partner Alliance, is a physics-based engineering software package that simulates the three-dimensional, transient, fluid-particle hydrodynamics, heat transfer, and chemical reactions in industrial fluidized bed reactors and other fluid-particle systems. In this session CPFD Software will present the Virtual Reactor software, discuss when it should be considered as a complement to DEM, and illustrate the concepts with industrial case studies. Guidance is provided about matching applications with the right software tool(s).
