Effect of a cluster on gas–solid drag from lattice Boltzmann simulations

Fast fluidization of fine particles leads to formation of particle clusters, which significantly affects the drag force between the phases. Existing gas–solid drag models, both empirical and theoretical, do not account for the effect of the clusters on the drag force, and as a result, the computatio...
