Particle-laden flow simulations demonstrate how pore structure affects macroscopic flow behavior in porous media.
The study identifies a Representative Elementary Volume approximately 20 times the maximum particle diameter.
Analysis combines discrete element and finite element methods for realistic fluid and solid interactions.
Findings emphasize the importance of fluid properties and pore structure on flow predictability in future time-dependent simulations.
