+Consider a 2~m long duct with a 1~m square cross section, fixed air velocity of $u_0=2$~m/s, and free-slip walls. Five ducts are stacked vertically, each with its own mesh and a plane of particles spanning the duct at its center point. The particles are 1~cm in diameter and 10~particles are specified in each grid cell. The expected pressure drop is given by the formula:
 \be \Delta p=\frac{1}{2} \rho \frac{\sum \, C_{\rm d} \, \pi \, r_{\rm p}^{2} \, u_0^2} {A} \ee
-where $A$ is the 1~m$^2$ cross-sectional area, $\rho=1.2$~kg/m$^3$ is the density of air, and the summation is over 4000 particles. For specified drag coefficients of 5, 10, and 20 in the three ducts, the pressure drops are expected to be 3.77~Pa, 7.54~Pa, and 15.1~Pa.  Comparisons of computed and analytical results are shown in the left hand plot of Fig.~\ref{sphere_drag_fig}.
+where $A$ is the 1~m$^2$ cross-sectional area, $\rho=1.2$~kg/m$^3$ is the density of air, and the summation is over 4000 particles. For specified drag coefficients of [5, 10, 20, 50, 100] in the five ducts, the pressure drops are expected to be [3.77, 7.54, 15.08, 37.70, 75.40] Pa.  Comparisons of computed and analytical results are shown in the left hand plot of Fig.~\ref{sphere_drag_fig}.  Note that accurate steady state pressure drop for high drag forces may require small time steps because FDS explicitly time marches to the steady solution.  In such cases, \ct{PARTICLE\_CFL\_MAX=0.1} may be required to achieve stable and accurate results.
 
 In a second test case, consider a single 10~m long, 1~m square duct. Spherical particles 2~mm in diameter with a density of 514~kg/m$^3$ are randomly distributed in the section of the duct between 4~m and 5~m from the upstream end. The particle mass per unit volume is set to 1.66~kg/m$^3$. The number of particles included in the simulation is 10000, which means that each particle actually represents 77.1 real particles. The drag coefficient is approximately 1.6, based on the local Reynolds number, which is about 40. The free stream velocity in the duct is 0.3~m/s, but the speed varies slightly within the cloud of particles. The pressure is expected to drop linearly from approximately 0.21~Pa to 0~Pa over the 1~m of duct filled by particles, as shown in the right hand plot of Fig.~\ref{sphere_drag_fig}.
