This animation is a test case using FLUENT to calculate a fully reacting unsteady natural gas flame in a simply counter flow drum dryer, coupled to EDEM with heat transfer from the fluid phase (CFD) to the solid phase (DEM).  The rock particles are colored by temperature so you can see the particles gain heat.  Animation courtesy of Andrew Hobbs, Astec.
