  Hello.
  
  I am doing my thesis on centrifugal separation .I would like to know if its possible to use the DPM on a rotating fluid body. In the picture i attached it shows two inlets and two outlets. The velocity inlets have a velocity of 3 m/s and the whole fluid domain is rotating at 400 rpm. The fluid contains a mixture of water and some solid particles. The minimum diameter of the solid particles is 0.0015m. The solid particles eject through the inlet at the same velocity (3m/s). If anyone would be kind enough to let me know which DPM model i should use with the rotating body .

  There is only one DPM model and can be used in rotating domains. I guess you need to explain more. In case of large volumetric concentration ( due to centrifugal effects) better to use dense DPM but you at first keep it simple.
