The biomassChemistryCouplingFoam is an extended solver based on our previous developed solver "biomassChemistryFoam". The biomassChemistryFoam is renamed as biomassChemistryIBMFoam, IBM stands for Interface-Based Method. Compared to biomassChemistryFoam the major change is the solid volume faction is added to the governing equations. The detials are documented in the "Student tutorials" at CFD with OpenSource Software (Course at Chalmers University of Technology) titled "Modifying coalChemistryFoam for dense gas-solid simulation".

A two grid model is used here.
The drag force is calculated differently based on the equation type. Reference paper "Discrete particle simulation of particle–fluid flow: model formulations and their applicability".
A single particle case is added as a test and tutorial case for this slover.
