class ansys.fluent.core.generated.solver.settings_271.discrete_phase(name=None, parent=None)

Bases: Group

Configures the Discrete Phase Model (DPM) to track particles, droplets, or bubbles in a Lagrangian framework. It allows definition of particle<96>fluid interaction settings, activation of physical submodels, and control of particle trajectory integration. Users can configure numerical tracking parameters, parallel tracking behavior, and injection definitions. All discrete phase simulations must be configured here before particle tracking is initialized.
