Lagrangian particle tracking (LPT)

A modified second-order accurate Euler method is used to solve the particle motion equation (partveq}). The differential equations for particle temperature- and mass change (Eqs.~parteqm} and~parteqt}) are solved by an iterative implicit Euler method. Continuous phase state variables ( \(\rho, \mv{u}, T, p, Y\)) are interpolated first-order accurately to the parcel position. A stencil containing all surrounding cells of the parcel and a distance weight is applied. The same weights are used for the redistribution of the parcel source terms for the continuous phase description. Particle-wall collisions are modeled as hard-sphere collisions based on boundary surface normal and position.
