Hello Nicolas,

I can only speak for the standard FlowEngine (and I think TwoPhaseFlow
derives from FlowEngine). It is a finite volume scheme, so it requires
the application and maintenance of boundary conditions. As of right now,
the FlowEngine will automatically apply and maintain these for you in a
box configuration. Your described requirements sound like a highly
dynamic and arbitrarily shaped system - FlowEngine will likely need
heavy modifications to produce the results you are after.

In response to your question "can I apply flowengine only inside
granular media": yes, FlowEngine triangulates the pores by using the
particles as nodes.

I have never used HydrodynamicsLBM so I am not sure if it is suitable or
not for your simulation.

Best,

Robert
