[en] A parallel dual-grid multiscale DEM-VOF coupling is here investigated. Dual-
grid multiscale couplings have been recently used to address different engineering problems
involving the interaction between granular phases and complex fluid flows. Nevertheless,
previous studies did not focus on the parallel performance of such a coupling and were,
therefore, limited to relatively small applications. In this contribution, we propose an
insight into the performance of the dual-grid multiscale DEM-VOF method for three-
phase flows when operated in parallel. In particular,we focus on a famous benchmark
case for three-phase flows and assess the influence of the partitioning algorithm on the
scalability of the dual-grid algorithm.
