Deepak posted a new comment: Hello, > 1. At first, primary particles are agglomerated into a clump due to van der wall force, I think you will have to include a formulation for the Van der Waals's forces in an existing contact law, for instance you can check Law2_ScGeom6D_CohFrictPhys_CohesionMoment in [1] and see how to modify it. For points 2,3 & 4 I think you can directly simulate this in Yade for 'dry' situations, i.e. without the fluid, there's an example of a ball- mill simulation in [2]. For generating particles (spheres and clumps) with radii distribution you can check the pack module[3] of Yade, there are several examples showing the use of this module in the documentation and the examples[4], [5] (see lines 58-75), > Can I couple YADE for DEM and 'Open FOAM' for CFD simulation? As long as you don't require a dynamic/moving mesh, it should be possible to simulate it. Considering the ball-mill example, you can setup the exact case in OpenFOAM, and use the rotatingWallVelocity boundary for the cylinder surface.
