In industrial arena, there are many solid-liquid two phase flow systems like mixing vessels, glass furnaces, solid-liquid separation equipments, etc. Numerical simulations are promising approach to understand the phenomena. Numerical analyses by the Eulerian-Lagrangian approach were performed in the past studies. The Eulerian-Lagrangian methods were applied to various solid-liquid flow systems without the free surfaces. On the other hand, numerical models which can treat the solid-liquid flows involving free surface were hardly developed so far. Hence, in the current study, we develop a Lagrangian-Lagrangian coupling methods to perform the fast simulation of the solid-liquid flows. The liquid phase were modeled by the Explicit Moving Particle Simulation (E-MPS) method. The E-MPS method can simulate the free surface flows easily. The DEM / E-MPS method was applied to a solid-liquid flow in a pipeline. The simulations were performed by changing the acoustic velocity. The simulation results, namely, the solid particle distribution, pressure and fluid velocity were compared in the present study. The DEM / E-MPS method is shown to make possible to perform the fast simulation by assuaging the acoustic velocity.
