Abstract

This work extends a multi-phase mixing model framework designed for a Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics context. Specifically, we propose a higher-order variation using the first-order accurate Generalised Finite Difference differential operators to construct an incompressible scheme for simulating fluid-solid coupled systems resolved via a continuum mixture model. The proposed scheme incorporates inter-phase shear between phases and the viscosity dependency of the solid phase concentration. The scheme is verified by simulating a modified lid-driven cavity case at Re = 1000. In this simulation, our method was capable of treating initially discontinuous concentration fields with a maximum solid volume concentration of 0.5 and a solid-to-fluid density ratio of 4.
