About

Bulk Flow Analyst is a Discrete Element Method simulation tool designed to help engineers analyze and optimize bulk material flow throughout transfer chutes and conveyor systems. Developed and used by engineers with direct expertise in transfer chute design, the software is built to make DEM simulation intuitive and practical so users can focus on chute performance instead of managing complex DEM parameters. Bulk Flow Analyst can simulate transfer problems involving bulk materials moving through chutes, hoppers, feeders, conveyor transfer points, belts, and related material-handling equipment. It helps designers visualize and evaluate how particles flow, impact, accumulate, discharge, and interact with geometry under different operating conditions. Through DEM, it supports analysis of difficult conveyor design challenges such as flow requirements, chute plugging, belt wear, chute surface wear, dust generation, spillage, material degradation, and impact behavior.

About

MFiX, or Multiphase Flow with Interphase eXchanges, is an open source multiphase flow solver and NETL’s flagship suite of computational fluid dynamics tool for modeling reacting multiphase flows. It has become a standard for comparing, implementing, and evaluating multiphase flow constitutive models, and has been applied to a diverse range of multiphase flow devices and industrial systems. MFiX provides multiple modeling approaches, including a Two-Fluid Model, Discrete Element Model, Coarse-Grained Particle DEM, Superquadric Particle DEM, Glued-Sphere Particle DEM, Particle-in-Cell model, hybrid methods, and a single-phase solver for pure granular flows. These models can be used to simulate gasifiers, circulating fluidized bed combustors, fluidized beds, fluid catalytic crackers, chemical looping combustion systems, and other particle-fluid systems involving hydrodynamics, heat transfer, species transport, and chemical reactions.
