When the unresolved CFD-DEM (Computational Fluid Dynamics and Discrete Element Method) method is used to solve two-phase flow (composed of fracturing fluid and quartz sand) problems in a pipe, although the collision and accumulation of particles can be described in mesoscopic scale, the method has a...
