竖直管气固鼓泡流化床传热机理的CPFD模拟

针对细颗粒气固鼓泡流化床中床料与竖直传热管壁面间的传热行为,在前期实验的基础上,采用计算颗粒流体力学(CPFD)方法从颗粒在传热壁面更新的角度,深入分析了传热特性与壁面气固流动行为之间的关联性。结果表明,模拟得到的传热管壁面颗粒更新通量和基于颗粒团更新模型的颗粒团平均停留时间均能很好解释实验测得的传热系数变化规律,这证实颗粒团更新是影响传热过程的控制性因素。模拟还发现随加热管从床层中心向边壁的移动,加热管周向方向上颗粒更新通量和传热系数的不均匀性都呈增大趋势。随着表观气速的增大,气泡行为导致床层颗粒内循环流率增大,这是导致颗粒团在加热管壁面上的更新频率增大以及床层与壁面间传热系数增大的根源。

流化床内自由移动石墨球表面的传热系数

密相区内自由移动的煤颗粒表面传热系数是循环流化床锅炉设计和运行的重要参数。利用石墨球模拟煤颗粒,在小型流化床实验台上对由粒度较小的石英砂颗粒组成的密相区内自由移动的石墨球表面传热系数进行了测量。测量结果显示,随着流化风速的增加,石墨球表面传热系数首先升高,当流化风速达到某一临界值时,继续增大流化风速,传热系数将保持不变,从传热的角度证明了流化床内煤颗粒基本停留在乳化相内。在多数情况下,石墨球表面传热系数随床料粒度的增大而减小。而在较低流化风速的情况下,随着床料粒度的增大,石墨球表面传热系数呈先下降后升高的趋势。当流化风速和床料粒径保持不变时,石墨球表面传热系数随着石墨球直径的增大而减小,且下降的趋势随石墨球直径的增大而减弱。而随着床层高度的增加,石墨球表面传热系数将会略有升高。

Particle‐scale simulation of the flow and heat transfer behaviors in fluidized bed with immersed tube

A kind of new modified computational fluid dynamics‐discrete element method (CFD‐DEM) method was founded by combining CFD based on unstructured mesh and DEM. The turbulent dense gas–solid two phase flow and the heat transfer in the equipment with complex geometry can be simulated by the programs based on the new method when the k‐ε turbulence model and the multiway coupling heat transfer model among particles, walls and gas were employed. The new CFD‐DEM coupling method that combining k‐ε turbulence model and heat transfer model, was employed to simulate the flow and the heat transfer behaviors in the fluidized bed with an immersed tube. The microscale mechanism of heat transfer in the fluidized bed was explored by the simulation results and the critical factors that influence the heat transfer between the tube and the bed were discussed. The profiles of average solids fraction and heat transfer coefficient between gas‐tube and particle‐tube around the tube were obtained and the influences of fluidization parameters such as gas velocity and particle diameter on the transfer coefficient were explored by simulations. The computational results agree well with the experiment, which shows that the new CFD‐DEM method is feasible and accurate for the simulation of complex gas–solid flow with heat transfer. And this will improve the farther simulation study of the gas–solid two phase flow with chemical reactions in the fluidized bed. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2009

Monitoring the particle-wall contact in a gas fluidized bed by RPT

Particle-wall contact behavior of the solids in a gas-solid fluidized bed was experimentally studied using the radioactive particle tracking (RPT) technique in which the position of a radioactive tracer is monitored when moving freely in the bed. The solids were sand particles, fluidized by air at room temperature and atmospheric pressure at various superficial velocities, covering both bubbling and turbulent regimes of fluidization. The motion of individual particles near the wall of the bed was studied based on the position of the tracer. The contact time, contact distance and contact frequency of the particles at the wall were evaluated. It was found that the distribution functions of these three parameters become wider by increasing the superficial gas velocity. Axial profiles of contact time and contact distance were also studied in this work. Axial profiles of the overall heat transfer coefficient in the fluidized bed were estimated based on the formulas reported in the literature and the experimental particle-wall contact time evaluated in the present study. Based on such profiles, in order to benefit from the maximum heat transfer coefficient along the bed, it is recommended to place the heat exchanging surface in the middle of the bed, i.e., not very close to the gas distributor as well as far from the top of the dense bed.     

Effect of annular fins on heat transfer of a horizontal immersed tube in bubbling fluidized beds

Experiments were conducted in a bubbling air-fluidized bed to investigate the effect of annular fins of constant thickness on heat transfer. Steady state time averaged local heat transfer coefficient measurements were made by the local thermal simulation technique in a cold bubbling fluidized bed (90 mm ID, 260 mm tall) with horizontally immersed tube initially with no fin and then with three fixed annular fins of constant thickness. Silica sand of mean particle diameter 307 μm and 200 μm were used as the bed materials. The superficial velocity of air was from minimum fluidization conditions, u_mf, to approximately 3 × u_mf. The results indicate that, although the heat transfer coefficient falls with the use of fins, the total heat transfer rises as a result of the greater surface area. Increasing the particle diameter reduces the heat transfer coefficient not only for unfinned horizontal tube but also for annular finned horizontal tube at the same conditions of fluidized bed. Based on the experimental data, correlations are proposed for predicting heat transfer coefficient from fluidized bed to horizontally immersed tubes with and without fins.     

Heat Transfer in a Liquid-Solid Circulating Fluidized Bed Reactor with Low Surface Tension Media

Heat transfer characteristics between the immersed heater and the bed content were studied in the riser of a liquid-solid circulating fluidized bed, whose diameter and height were 0.102 m (ID) and 2.5 ...     

Heat transfer in a swirling fluidized bed with geldart type-D particles

A relatively new variant in fluidized bed technology, designated as the swirling fluidized bed (SFB), was investigated for its heat transfer characteristics when operating with Geldart type D particles. Unlike conventional fluidized beds, the SFB imparts secondary swirling motion to the bed to enhance lateral mixing. Despite its excellent hydrodynamics, its heat transfer characteristics have not been reported in the published literature. Hence, two different sizes of spherical PVC particles (2.61 mm and 3.65 mm) with the presence of a center body in the bed have been studied at different velocities of the fluidizing gas. The wall-to-bed heat transfer coefficients were measured by affixing a thin constantan foil heater on the bed wall. Thermocouples located at different heights on the foil show a decrease in the wall heat transfer coefficient with bed height. It was seen that only a discrete particle model which accounts for the conduction between the particle and the heat transfer surface and the gas-convective augmentation can adequately represent the mechanism of heat transfer in the swirling fluidized bed.     

Heat transfer in three-phase (G/L/S) circulating fluidized beds with low surface tension media

Characteristics of heat transfer were investigated in a three-phase circulating fluidized bed whose diameter and height were 0.102 m (ID) and 2.5 m, respectively. Effects of gas and liquid velocities, particle size (0.5–3.0 mm), solid circulation rate (2.0–6.5 kg/m² s), and surface tension (47.53–72.75×10⁻³ N/m) of liquid phase on the heat transfer coefficient were examined. It was found that the heat transfer coefficient (h) between the immersed vertical heater and the riser proper of the three-phase circulating fluidized bed increased with increase in gas and liquid velocities, but did not change considerably with a further increase in liquid velocity, even in the higher range. The value of heat transfer coefficient increased gradually with increase in the size of fluidized solid particles without exhibiting the local minimum, which represented that there was no bed contraction in three-phase circulating fluidized beds due to the higher liquid velocity. The heat transfer system could attain a stabilized condition more easily with increase in particle size. The value of heat transfer coefficient increased with increase in solid circulation rate in all the cases studied due to the increase of solid holdup in the riser. The value of heat transfer coefficient decreased with increase in surface tension of liquid phase, due to the decrease of bubbling phenomena and bubble holdup. The decrease in liquid surface tension could lead to an increase in elapsed time from which the temperature difference between the heater surface and the riser became an almost constant value. The experimentally obtained values of heat transfer coefficient were well correlated in terms of dimensionless groups as well as operating variables.     

Heat Transfer from Immersed Vertical Cylinders in Gas‐Liquid and Gas‐Liquid‐Solid Fluidized Beds

The heat transfer coefficient, h, was measured using a cylindrical heater vertically immersed in liquid‐solid and gas‐liquid‐solid fluidized beds. The gas used was air and the liquids used were water and 0.7 and 1.5 wt‐% carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) aqueous solutions. The fluidized particles were sieved glass beads with 0.25, 0.5, 1.1, 2.6, and 5.2 mm average diameters. We tried to obtain unified dimensionless correlations for the cylinder surface‐to‐liquid heat transfer coefficients in the liquid‐solid and gas‐liquid‐solid fluidized beds. In the first approach, the heat transfer coefficients were successfully correlated in a unified formula in terms of a modified j_H‐factor and the modified liquid Reynolds number considering the effect of spatial expansion for the fluidized bed within an error of 36.1 %. In the second approach, the heat transfer coefficients were also correlated in a unified formula in terms of the dimensionless quantities, Nu/Pr^1/3, and the specific power group including energy dissipation rate per unit mass of liquid, E^1/3D^4/3/ν_l, within a smaller error of 24.7 %. It is also confirmed that a good analogy exists between the surface‐to‐liquid heat transfer and mass transfer on the immersed cylinder in the liquid‐solid and gas‐liquid‐solid fluidization systems.

Computational Fluid Dynamics Study of Heat Transfer in Turbulent Fluidized Beds

The fluidization and heat transfer behaviors of a turbulent fluidized bed were investigated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The effects of inlet superficial velocity on heat transfer behaviors in a turbulent fluidized bed were analyzed and compared with those operated in other fluidization regimes. The effects of using particles belonging to different Geldart groups in a turbulent fluidized bed on fluidization and heat transfer behaviors were evaluated. For both fluidization regimes investigated, the solids temperature distribution during the heat transfer process became less uniform when the particle size was reduced.
