Computational Fluid Dynamics - Discrete Element Method (CFD-DEM) is extensively used for modeling heat transfer in gas-solid fluidized beds. However, CFD-DEM is computationally expensive, leading to a restriction regarding the number of simulated particles. Coarse-grained CFD-DEM is a technique to c...
