Detailed Description

template<class CloudType>
class Foam::NonSphereDragForce< CloudType >

Drag model for non-spherical particles.

Takes the form of

24.0/Re*(1.0 + a_*pow(Re, b_)) + Re*c_/(Re + d_);

Where a(phi), b(phi), c(phi) and d(phi) are model coefficients, with phi defined as:

area of sphere with same volume as particle phi = ——————————————- actual particle area

Equation used is Eqn (11) of reference below - good to within 2 to 4 % of RMS values from experiment.

H and L also give a simplified model with greater error compared to results from experiment - Eqn 12 - but since phi is presumed constant, it offers little benefit.
