Dataset for: "Resolved large eddy simulations of a settling or rising spherical microplastic particle"
Summary
This dataset contains simulation files for large eddy simulations modelling how spherical microplastic particles of different densities settle or rise through water, capturing their trajectories and velocities. Understanding these physical transport dynamics is important for predicting where microplastics accumulate in aquatic environments and which depth zones and organisms are most exposed.
-The "settlingRisingVelocity.mat" is a MATLAB binary workspace file containing the diameter, density, and settling or rising velocity of all simulated microplastic particles, with their position and velocity time series and kinematic viscosity of the fluid.-The "settlingRising_main.zip" is a main simulation folder that can be manipulated for the specific case and used with present CFD-DEM coupling.-Example simulation videos for each microplastic particle are provided with the naming convention "S_X.mp4" for the settling microplastics and "R_X.mp4" for the rising microplastics, where “X” refers to the case number. Please note that the videos are low-quality when using the preview. For optimal quality, it is suggested to download the videos and play the files directly.
