High Fidelity Computational Model for Fluidized Bed Experiments

MFiX was integrated with preconditioners and linear solver packages in Trilinos via MFiX, Fortran, C, and C++ wrappers. The MFiX wrapper interpreted the structure of the matrix and vector from MFiX while the Fortran wrapper transfered this information to a low-level language, C. The C-wrapper transformed the memory semantic between Fortran and C++ language. The C++ wrapper passed the matrix and vector to a Trilinos package and got the solution. This solution was transferred to MFiX via C++, C, Fortran, MFiX wrapper. The framework was used to integrate first, second, and third generation linear solvers in Trilinos with MFiX.
