Rotation of particle in a microchannel

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,
I am designing model for inertial focusing in straight channel on Comsol. From this model I am trying to find the equilibrium position of particle in the flow by calculating surface forces on the particle. For accounting the particle rotation effect, rigid body equations of sphere are used as moving wall condition on particle surface. But the model is not converging for the above boundary conditions.
Similarly, when I am using slip velocity condition for accounting the rotation of particle the reacf() operator is always returning zero value.
Can you suggest solutions to overcome these problems.

Thank you
