Numerical investigation of a capsule-shaped particle settling in a vertical channel

The previously developed lattice Boltzmann - direct forcing/fictitious domain method is improved by introducing a multiple-relaxation-time model, and a detailed investigation of sedimentation of a capsule-shaped particle settling in a channel is carried out. The effects of blockage ratio on the...
