Discrete Element Method Modeling of the Rheological Properties of Coke/Pitch Mixtures

Discrete Element Method Modeling of the Rheological Properties of Coke/Pitch Mixtures

Rheological properties of pitch and pitch/coke mixtures at temperatures around 150 °C are of great interest for the carbon anode manufacturing process in the aluminum industry. In the present work, a cohesive viscoelastic contact model based on Burger’s model is developed using the discrete element...
