Abstract The drying and hydrodynamic characteristics of iron ore particles in a vertical pneumatic conveying dryer (0.078 m ID × 6.0 m high) have been determined. The pressure drop decreases along the height at the acceleration region, while it remains constant irrespective of the height in the fully developed region. The degree of particle drying in the dilute pneumatic region increases with increasing superficial inlet gas velocity at constant inlet gas temperature and solid injection rate. However, it decreases with increasing solid injection rates at identical superficial inlet gas velocity and inlet gas temperature. The degree of particle drying increases from 48.6 to 82.5% as the inlet gas temperature increases from 100 to 400 °C. 相似文献

This paper explores numerical and experimental studies on the performance of a pneumatic conveying dryer. The four-way coupling Eulerian–Lagrangian approach is utilized in the numerical study and the experimental study is carried out in a pilot-scale vertical pneumatic conveying dryer of diameter 8.1 cm and 4.5 m length. The effects of Reynolds number, particle size, solid mass flow rate, and inlet gas temperature on the dryer performance are investigated. It is found that the present model predictions agree well with the experimental data. Generally, it is concluded that the drying rate increases as the Reynolds number increases, while increasing the particle size or the solid mass flow rate decreases the drying rate. 相似文献

Product damage, high energy consumption, and nonhomogeneous final properties are present in typical drying operations such as pneumatic drying, fluidized-bed dryers, and upward circulating fluidized-bed dryers. The downer bed has been shown to be a good technique for this processes. The objective of this work is to test an experimental downflow dryer and model its operation. The equipment consists of a 5-m-high stainless steel duct with 0.17 m i.d. Gas velocity was varied between 0.3 and 8 m/s in co-current solid flow varying between 0 and 50 kg/m2s. Drying rates, pressures, and total flux for solid and gas are determined. Temperature profiles for gas and solid along the radial and axial directions are determined and tested with model predictions. The solid particles were previously dried turnip (Brassica napus) seeds. The equipment shows good operational conditions and facilities for parameter determination, but must be complemented with better equipment for particle concentration determinations. The model's predictions of pressure, gas velocity, solid concentration, and temperature are compared with our experimental values or those reported in the literature. 相似文献

The hydrodynamic and gas mixing characteristics have been determined in a FCC regenerator (0.48 m I.D.x3.4 m high) with FCC
particles. Solids holdup in the dense bed decreases with increasing gas velocity, but it increases in the freeboard region.
The bubble/void fraction increases with an increase along the bed height at a given gas velocity and increases with increasing
gas velocity at a constant bed height. Backmixed tracer gas at the wall region is higher than that at the center region of
the bed. The gas backmixing coefficient decreases with increasing gas velocity. 相似文献

The superficial and bound moisture removal from soya meal was studied in a pneumatic dryer. The effect of external condition over the effective diffusivity in drying kinetics prediction has been demonstrated and a model that considers time variable diffusion coefficient was developed and correlated with gas temperature and velocities. A simple experimental technique using a pulse injection of humected solid was utilized to determine real drying kinetics under steady state operation with solids recycling. The model fitted the experimental data well over a gas temperature range between 100° C and 300° C and gas velocities of 3.5 m/ s and 20 m/ s. 相似文献

Liquid dispersion in the radial direction was investigated in the riser of a viscous liquid-solid fluidized bed 0.102 m in diameter and 3.5 m in height. Pressure fluctuations in the riser were also measured and analyzed to examine the behavior of fluidized particles. Effects of liquid velocity (0.15-0.45 m/s), solid circulation rate (2-8 kg/m2s), particle size (1-3 mm), and liquid viscosity (0.96-38 mPas) on pressure fluctuations and the liquid radial dispersion coefficient were determined. The infinite space model was employed to obtain the radial dispersion coefficient from the radial concentration profiles of the tracer. The pressure fluctuations were analyzed by means of autocorrelation coefficient as well as power spectral density function. The dominant frequency obtained from the autocorrelation coefficient or power spectral density function of pressure fluctuations decreases with increasing liquid viscosity or liquid velocity, but it increases with increasing particle size. The liquid radial dispersion coefficient decreases with increasing liquid velocity or viscosity, but it increases as the solid circulation rate or particle size increases. The liquid radial dispersion coefficient is related closely to the resultant behavior of fluidized particles. The radial dispersion coefficient has been well correlated with operating variables in terms of dimensionless groups. 相似文献

A Parametric Study of the Gas Flow Patterns and Drying Performance of Co-current Spray Dryer: Results of a Computational Fluid Dynamics Study 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A computational fluid dynamic study was carried out to investigate airflow pattern, temperature, and humidity profile at different levels in the drying chamber. Good agreement was obtained with published experimental data. The effects of operating pressure, heat loss from the chamber wall and inlet air conditions on the gas flow pattern, droplet trajectories, and overall dryer performance also were investigated. Results are presented and discussed in terms of the gas velocity, temperature, and humidity profiles within the chambers. The volumetric evaporation values, heat transfer intensity, and thermal energy consumption per unit evaporation rate were computed and compared for drying of a 42.5% solids solution in a spray chamber 2.215 m in diameter with a cylindrical top section 2.005 m high and a bottom cone 1.725 m high. Wall regions subject to formation of undesirable deposits are also identified. 相似文献

The hydrodynamics in a trickle bed reactor (TBR) in non-ambient conditions are studied for air-water and air-acetone (pure organic liquid of low surface tension) systems. A flow map experiments for air-water and air-acetone systems are performed in a pilot plant reactor of 0.05 m i.d. and 1.25 m height. It has been demonstrated from the experimental results that the pressure drop tends to increase with increasing superficial gas and liquid velocity and reactor pressure, while it tends to decrease with increasing bed temperature. The results also show that the dynamic liquid holdup increases with increasing liquid velocity and decreases with increasing superficial gas velocity, reactor pressure and bed temperature. The dynamic liquid holdup and pressure drop values are obviously higher than those measured for air-water system at the same fluid fluxes, reactor pressure and bed temperature due to the surface tension effects. For higher reactor pressure and temperature, the trickle to pulse transition boundary shifts towered higher superficial velocities of both gas and liquid. 相似文献

The effects of gas velocity (0.32 to 0.67 m/s), inlet gas temperature (25 to 100 °C) and the mass ratio of starch to inert particles (0.1 to 0.4) on the drying rate of starch in a 0.083 m-ID × 0.80 m-high inert medium fluidized bed were investigated. The drying mechanism in an inert medium fluidized bed can be classified into adhesion-dispersion, evaporation and disintegration steps. The drying rate increases with the increasing inlet gas temperature and velocity; the rates being about 10 times those reported for an agitated pan dryer. However, the drying rate decreases slightly as the mass ratio of starch to inert particles increases. Also, the drying rate exhibits a maximum at an optimum bed porosity. The drying rate data obtained in an inert medium fluidized bed have been correlated with the relevant dimensionless groups, i.e. Stefan and particle Reynolds numbers based on the theory of isotropic turbulence. 相似文献

The effect of particle size distribution (PSD) on local voidage has been investigated in a conical fluidized bed containing dried placebo pharmaceutical granule. For each of the five PSDs examined, the static bed height was varied between 0.12 and 0.17 m and the superficial gas velocity was varied between 0.05 and 0.75 m/s. The local voidage was measured using a twin-plane electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) system. A wide PSD containing 12 wt% solids with a diameter of 2 mm or larger resulted in two different types of gas flow: an annular gas flow up to a gas velocity of 0.50 m/s and a centrally concentrated gas flow above 0.50 m/s. The mixtures containing less coarse material exhibited a centrally concentrated gas flow surrounded by a dense phase at the walls of the bed over the entire range of gas velocities and bed heights examined. Consideration of previous work by other researchers suggests that the behavior of the wide PSD mixture is due to segregation at the lower velocities. The local voidage was sensitive to small changes in static bed height. For the wide PSD mixture at a fixed gas velocity, the gas tended to spread more uniformly over the bed cross-section as static bed height increased. The opposite was true of the other mixtures, i.e., the gas flow became more centralized with increasing bed height. 相似文献

A laboratory scale circulating fluidized bed, 50 mm i.d. 4.97 m high, has been operated with different solid inventories in the downcomer. The operating conditions cover a wide range of superficial gas velocities and solid circulation rates. A critical gas velocity Ucr is defined as the gas velocity beyond which the interface between the dense bed and the dilute bed cannot be observed in the circulating fluidized bed at any solid circulation rate. Three different fluidization regimes exist at gas velocities lower than Ucr; they are: the dilute transport bed, the dense bed and the bed with an interface between the bottom dense bed and the upper dilute freeboard. An additional fluidization regime exists at gas velocities greater than Ucr where no interface can be found at any solid circulation rate. Ucr increases with increasing solid inventory. The height of the interface is significantly affected by the solid inventory, and is also greatly affected by the design of the pneumatic valve. The whole bed becomes a dense bed after the interface extends to the exit region of the bed. 相似文献

A study was performed to determine the drying characteristics and quality of barley grain dried in a laboratory scale spouted-bed dryer at 30, 35, 40, and 45°C and an inlet air velocity of 23 m/s-1, and in an IR-convection dryer under an infrared radiation intensity of 0.048, 0.061, 0.073, and 0.107 W cm-2 at an air velocity of 0.5 m/s-1. The results show that the first, relatively short, phase of a sharp decrease in the drying rate was followed by the phase of a slow decrease. The time of barley drying depended on temperature of inlet air in a spouted-bed dryer and on radiation intensities in an IR-convection dryer. Barley drying at 45°C in a spouted-bed dryer was accompanied by the lowest total energy consumption. The average specific energy consumption was lower and the average efficiency of drying was higher for drying in a spouted-bed dryer. The effective diffusivities were in the range 2.20-4.52 × 10-11 m2 s-1 and 3.04-4.79 × 10-11 m2/s-1 for barley dried in a spouted-bed and in an IR-convection dryer, respectively. There were no significant differences in kernel germination energy and capacity between the two drying methods tested. 相似文献

Constant and Intermittent Drying Characteristics of Olive Cake 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The drying kinetics of olive cake, the solid by-product of the olive oil extraction process, has been experimentally investigated in a small-scale tray dryer using both constant and intermittent (on/off) heating schemes. The parameters investigated include inlet air temperature and intermittency of heat input. The drying kinetics was interpreted through two mathematical models, the Page equation and the Lewis equation. The Page equation was most appropriate in describing the drying behavior of olive cake. A diffusion model was used to describe the moisture transfer and the effective diffusion coefficient at each temperature was determined. The dependence of the effective diffusion coefficient on drying temperature can be adequately explained based on an Arrhenius-type relation. The effective diffusion coefficient varied between 7.6 × 10-8 and 2.5 × 10-7 m2/min with an activation energy of 38.55 kJ/mol. Comparison of time evolution of material moisture content due to intermittent and constant drying is also made. 相似文献
