Abstract

In this paper, we reported the verification of numerical simulation approach for sedimentation of the multi-size particles in a container. The comparison between experimentally measured values and numerically evaluated values on settle down process of fully mixed mixture is carried out. In an attempt to represent the natural particle size distribution, various diameters of single particles are simulated and the results are compared with the outcome of the multi-size computation. When the empirical formula for mean particle size estimation is adopted to define the sediment diameter, computation and comparison are conducted.
