Deepak proposed the following answer:
Hello,
Yes it should be possible to perform such a simulation. You can create a pipe
geometry mesh it and set the appropriate boundary conditions in openfoam. In
the yade side, use the same pipe geometry (.stl file) generate a facet body
from this stl, generate spheres at the interior of the cylinder surface and
set the exact boundary conditions you have in openfoam.
For example : for a fully developed pipe flow (i,e. the velocity profile does
not vary along the axis), you would require periodic boundary conditions at
the 'inlet' and 'outlet' surfaces (along the axial direction), and wall
boundary condition over the cylinder surface.
In yade, this same setup has to be maintained, perioidic bcs in the axial
direction and solid wall/facet to represent the cylinder surface, and generate
spheres using the spherePack utility with the cylinder as the preidcate.
