| Abstract: | We represent a two-dimensional model of polydisperse granular mixtures with a power-law size distribution. The model consists of smooth hard disks in a rectangular box with inelastic collisions, driven by a homogeneous heat bath at zero gravity. The width of particle size distribution is characterized by the only
parameter, namely, the fractal dimension D. The energy dissipation of the mixture is increased as D increases or as e decreases. Furthermore, it is found that the steady-state properties of the mixture such as the collision rate, granular temperature, kinetic pressure and velocity distribution depend sensitively on size distribution parameter D. |
