Advanced Modeling Solutions for Bulk Material Flow

EDEM provides a platform for simulating a wide range of phenomena related to bulk materials.

The default capability can be extended and customised to model a wide variety of physics involving particles as well as coupling with other software and models to implement advanced multi-physics solutions.

Experience

We have experience in developing and implementing bulk materials modeling solutions for:

Blockage and holdup of coal and ore flow through conveyor transfer chutes and mining equipment

Wear prediction for bulk materials handling equipment

Design of ground engaging tools to maximise production capacity, predict performance of wear packages and estimate structural loads.

Prediction of energy usage, grinding efficiency and liner wear in tumbling mills

Scale-up and optimisation of mixed-media powder grinding mills

Design of grain sieving and separation machinery in combine harvesters and cleaning equipment

Prediction of tablet damage, coating variability and effect of tablet shape in pan and Wurster-type coaters

Mixing of powders and granules

Analysis of the formation of gravel packs in oil and gas wells

Simulation of proppant transport in fraccing
