A “multimodel” for gas‐solid reactions in a reacting particle has been applied to a bubbling fluidized bed reactor. The particle is tracked and bed and particle variables are determined continuously. The conservation equations of mass and heat with auxiliary relations are solved in an accelerating particle, which may rise or fall. The effects of bulk pressure, velocity and temperature, and particle diameter are studied. Heat and mass transfer coefficients may fluctuate up to 75% and 148% respectively. Doubling the pressure changes hc by 75% and kc by ?45%. Increase in pellet diameter reduces both hc and kc. 相似文献

It is well known that hydrodynamics observed in large scale gas–solid fluidized beds are different from those observed in smaller scale beds. In this article, an efficient two‐fluid model based on kinetic theory of granular flow is applied, with the goal to highlight and investigate hydrodynamics differences between three‐dimensional fluidized beds of diameter 0.10, 0.15, 0.30, 0.60, and 1.0 m, focusing on the bubble and solids flow characteristics in the bubbling regime. Results for the 0.30 m diameter bed are compared with experimental results from the literature. The bubble size evolution closely follows a correlation proposed by Werther for small beds, and a correlation proposed by Darton for sufficiently large beds. The bubble size increases as the bed diameter is increased from 0.10 to 0.30 m, and remains approximately constant for bed diameters from 0.30 to 1.0 m. Concurrently, an increase in bubble rise velocity is observed, with a much high bubble rise velocity in the largest bed of diameter 1.0 m due to gulf stream circulations. The dynamics in shallow and deep beds is predicted to be different, with marked differences in bubble size and solids circulation patterns. © 2015 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 61: 1492–1506, 2015 相似文献

Particle‐resolved direct numerical simulations (PR‐DNS) of a simplified experimental shallow fluidized bed and a laboratory bubbling fluidized bed are performed by using immersed boundary method coupled with a soft‐sphere model. Detailed information on gas flow and individual particles’ motion are obtained and analyzed to study the gas–solid dynamics. For the shallow bed, the successful predictions of particle coherent oscillation and bed expansion and contraction indicate all scales of motion in the flow are well captured by the PD‐DNS. For the bubbling bed, the PR‐DNS predicted time averaged particle velocities show a better agreement with experimental measurements than those of the computational fluid dynamics coupled with discrete element models (CFD‐DEM), which further validates the predictive capability of the developed PR‐DNS. Analysis of the PR‐DNS drag force shows that the prevailing CFD‐DEM drag correlations underestimate the particle drag force in fluidized beds. The particle mobility effect on drag correlation needs further investigation. © 2016 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 62: 1917–1932, 2016 相似文献

The effect of bubble injection characteristics on the mixing behavior of a gas‐solid fluidized bed is investigated using a discrete particle model. The effect of different parameters including gas injection time, velocity, and mode are studied. Simulation results show that injecting gas at a constant gas flow rate in the form of small bubbles results in a better overall particle mixing. It was also found that the injection velocities have limited effect on particle mixing behavior for the same total gas volume injected into the bed. Moreover, the mixing index (MI) of continuous gas jet bubbling regime is compared with the MI obtained in uniform gas injection regime and the results revealed that the MI of continuous jet bubbling regime has a larger value than that of uniform gas injection regime at the fixed total gas flow rate. In both regimes, z‐direction MI is larger than x‐direction index. The differences between two direction indices are more noticeable in continuous jet bubbling in comparison with the uniform gas injection regime. © 2016 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 62: 1430–1438, 2016 相似文献

The distributions of the three phases in gas–liquid–solid circulating fluidized beds (GLSCFB) were studied using a novel measurement technique that combines electrical resistance tomography (ERT) and optical fibre probe. The introduction of gas into a liquid–solid circulating fluidized bed (LSCFB), thus forming a GLSCFB, caused the increase of solids holdup due to the significantly decreased available buoyancy with the lower density of the gas, even with a somewhat increased liquid velocity due to the decreased liquid holdup giving space for the gas holdup. The gas passed through the riser in the form of bubbles, which tended to flow more through the central region of the riser, leading to more radial non‐uniformity in radial holdup of the phases. The gas velocity has the most significant effect on the gas phase holdup. While the gas velocity also has an obvious effect to the solids holdups, the liquid flow rate had a much more considerable effect on the phase holdups. The solids circulation rate also had a significant effect on the phase holdups, with increasing solids circulation rate causing much more increased solids holdup in the central region than close to the wall. A correlation was developed for the relative radial distributions of solids holdup in GLSCFB, as such radial profiles were found similar over a wide range of operating conditions, like those in a typical gas–solid circulating fluidized beds (GSCFB). Finally, the axial solids profiles in a GLSCFB was found to be much closer to those in an LSCFB which are very uniform, than those found in a GSCFB which are less uniform and sometime having a S shape. Water was used as the continuous and conductive phase, air was the gas phase and glass bead and lava rock particles were used as the solid and non‐conductive phase. 相似文献

A new wavelet‐threshold criterion was developed to distinguish the cluster and the void phases from the transient solids holdup/concentration fluctuation signals when measured in a 108 mm‐i.d. × 5.75 m‐high circulating fluidized bed with FCC particles (dp = 78 μm, ρp = 1,880 kg/m3). An appropriate level of approximation subsignal was systematically specified as a threshold for cluster identification, based on multiresolution analysis (MRA) of wavelet transformation. By the established threshold, the dynamic properties of clusters including the appearance time fraction of clusters Fcl, average cluster duration time τcl , cluster frequency fcl, and local average solids holdup in clusters εsc , at different radial and axial positions were determined under the turbulent, transition and fast fluidization flow regimes. The results also describe the dynamic properties of clusters and flow patterns in the splash zone along with the dense bottom region of the circulating fluidized beds. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2009 相似文献

Detailed local flow structures are investigated in bubbling and turbulent fluidized bed with FCC particles. The operating conditions ranges from 0.06 to 1.4 m/s. Extensive experiments are carried out using a newly developed optical fiber probe system, which can measure the solids concentration and velocity at multi-points. The results reveal that with increasing Ug, local solids concentrations go through three evolution stages, reflecting a gradual regime transition process. Under all operating conditions, upflowing and descending particles co-exist at all measuring locations. The upflowing particle velocity is strong function of both superficial gas velocity and spatial position. However, the descending particle velocity mainly depends on superficial gas velocity. The bed radial symmetry and the effects of static bed height on the local flow structures are also investigated. 相似文献

Experimental and numerical research for fluidization behaviors in a gas–solid acoustic fluidized bed
Changqing Cao Shuqin Dong Yanan Zhao Qingjie Guo 《American Institute of Chemical Engineers》2010,56(7):1726-1736
The effects of sound assistance on fluidization behaviors were systematically investigated in a gas–solid acoustic fluidized bed. A model modified from Syamlal–O'Brien drag model was established. The original solid momentum equation was developed and an acoustic model was also proposed. The radial particle volume fraction, axial root‐mean‐square of bed pressure drop, granular temperature, and particle velocity in gas–solid acoustic fluidized bed were simulated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code Fluent 6.2. The results showed that radial particle volume fraction increased using modified drag model compared with that using the original one. Radial particle volume fraction was revealed as a parabolic concentration profile. Axial particle volume fraction decreased with the increasing bed height. The granular temperature increased with increasing sound pressure level. It showed that simulation values using CFD code Fluent 6.2 were in agreement with the experimental data. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2010 相似文献

An investigation was carried out in a circulating fluidized bed to explore if rice husk could be fluidized without mixing it with any foreign solids. Experimental results indicate that bed cross‐section has an important influence on the fluidization characteristics of rice husk. Larger the cross‐section, easier it is to fluidize the husk without slugging. Particle size, sphericity, bulk density, and transport velocity of husk were measured. The riser was operated under bubbling bed regimes. Efforts were made to measure the minimum fluidization velocity by varying the bed depth and cross‐section. 相似文献

The fluidized behavior of binary mixtures of moist sawdust and glass spheres has been investigated. The sawdust alone was observed to fluidize poorly, with extensive channelling occurring. The addition of 0.322 and 0.516 mm glass spheres to the fluidized bed of sawdust improved the fluidization characteristics. The mixtures of sawdust and 0.322 mm spheres were completely mixed when fluidized. Mixtures of sawdust and 0.516 mm spheres were either partially or completely mixed, depending upon gas velocity in the fluidized bed. As the moisture content of the sawdust was increased, the minimum fluidization velocity of the binary mixture also increased. There was an upper limit to the moisture content of the sawdust at which fluidization could be achieved. When the moisture content of the sawdust exceeded 33 and 54 wt% on a dry basis, agglomeration and channelling occurred in the mixtures of sawdust and glass spheres, with sizes 0.322 and 0.516 mm, respectively. The moisture likely contributes to interparticle liquid bridging forces. Binary mixtures of larger 0.777 and 1.042 mm glass spheres and up to 82% moisture sawdust did not readily agglomerate, but the two components completely segregated during fluidization. 相似文献

The effect of agitation on the fluidization performance of a gas–solid fluidized bed with a frame impeller is experimentally and numerically investigated. A 3‐D unsteady computational fluid dynamics method is used, combining a two‐fluid model and the kinetic theory of granular flow. The rotation of the impeller is implemented with a multiple reference frame method. The numerical model is validated using experimental data of the bed pressure drop and pressure fluctuation. Although the minimum fluidizing velocity and bed pressure drop are independent of the impeller agitation, a sufficiently high agitation speed yields higher fluidization performance with reduced bubble diameters and internal circulations of particles. The fluidized bed can be divided into three zones: inlet zone where the gas distribution plays a major role, agitated fluidization zone where the impeller agitation has a positive effect on fluidization, and free fluidization zone where the impeller agitation has no effect on fluidization. © 2012 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 59: 1066–1074, 2013 相似文献

Electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) provides a non‐intrusive means to visualize cross‐sectional material distribution of gas–solid bubbling fluidized beds. Successful application of ECT strongly depends on the image reconstruction algorithm used. For on‐line measurements of bubbling fluidized beds, employing an algorithm that can produce high‐quality images without extensive computation is necessary. Using the conventional Tikhonov regularization algorithm, image quality in the central area is basically satisfied but suffers from artifacts in the near‐wall region. To solve this problem, a similar division operation learned from linear back projection was introduced to modify the conventional Tikhonov algorithm. Both numerical simulations and experiments were performed to evaluate the modified technique. The results indicate that the artifacts can be effectively removed and the reconstructed image quality is similar to Landweber method with dozens of iterations. Furthermore, the modified Tikhonov technique shows high accuracy when obtaining important hydrodynamic parameters in gas–solid bubbling fluidized beds. © 2017 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 63: 29–41, 2018 相似文献

The hydrodynamics of a freely bubbling, pseudo 2‐D fluidized bed has been investigated experimentally for different bed aspect ratios at different superficial gas velocities by using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) combined with Digital Image Analysis (DIA). Coupling of both non‐invasive measuring techniques allows us to obtain information on both the bubble behaviour and emulsion phase circulation patterns simultaneously. In particular, the combination of DIA with PIV allows to correct for the influence of particle raining through the roof of the bubbles on the time‐averaged emulsion phase velocity profiles. 相似文献

Electrostatics and hydrodynamics in the fluidized bed are mutually affected, and excess accumulation of electrostatic charges has a severe impact on hydrodynamics. However, there is a serious lack of experimental investigation of electrostatic effect on hydrodynamics. This work provides a first insight into the electrostatic effects on bubble behaviors experimentally by injecting a trace of liquid antistatic agents (LAA) into a fluidized bed. Different amounts of LAA (0–50 ppm) were injected to make the electrostatic charges vary in a wide range and the bubble behaviors were investigated simultaneously. Results showed that the charges on particles decreased with increasing amount of LAA, which resulted in larger bubble sizes, stronger fluctuations of dynamic bed height, and less wall sheeting, respectively. The maximum reduction ratio of bubble sizes due to electrostatic effect was 21%. When particles were charged, the bubble sizes were significantly smaller than those estimated from the classical correlation. This discrepancy was attributed to the neglect of electrostatic effect in classical correlation. © 2015 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 61: 1160–1171, 2015 相似文献

An analysis approach considering gas-solids hydrodynamics, reaction kinetics and reacting species non-uniformity together in a dual-reactor system is presented for better understanding its mass and energy balance. It was achieved by a 3-dimensional comprehensive hydrodynamics and reaction model for the dual-reactor system, which was developed from the successfully verified 3-dimensional comprehensive combustion model for one circulating fluidized bed (CFB) system (Xu and Cheng, 2019). The developed model and analysis approach was successfully used on a 1?MW circulating fluidized bed – bubbling fluidized bed (CFB-BFB) dual-reactor system. Results showed the sensible and chemical energy between two reactors as well as the energy distributions in each reactor were balanced and they agreed well with the experimental measurements. The analysis approach indicated energy balance had a close relationship with the mass transfer in the CFB-BFB dual-reactor system. It may be applied in a design and operation optimization for a dual-reactor system. 相似文献

The flow in a gas–liquid–solid circulating fluidized bed is self‐organised and manifests itself with clustering of particles and bubbles. The clustering behaviour in the fluidized bed at low solid holdups of resin particles was experimentally investigated with a high‐speed image measurement and treatment technique of complementary metal oxide semiconductor to enhance the fundamental understanding on such a flow. Several new physical quantities were suggested to characterise such ordered flow structures. The main findings are as follows. The clusters of solid particles largely exist as doublets and triplets, the mixed groups of particles and bubbles mostly exist as one bubble carrying two to four particles. Increasing superficial liquid velocity, particle diameter or density weakens the aggregation degrees of both particle and mixed clusters in the riser and downer, except that the increase of superficial liquid velocity enhances the mixed clustering behaviour in the riser. The climbing of the auxiliary liquid velocity or liquid phase viscosity intensifies the aggregation behaviour, except that the increase of liquid phase viscosity reduces the mixed clustering degree in the riser. The influences of superficial gas velocity and surface tension of liquid phase on the clustering behaviour seem to be a little complex and the trends are not simply increasing or decreasing. The life cycle of solid particle clusters in the GLS riser is not sensitive to the operation conditions, being around 0.07 s. The mixed clusters' life cycle is more sensitive to the conditions and physical properties of phases, changing from 0.02 to 0.07 s. 相似文献

Local velocity gradients on a solid spherical surface have been studied in a bubble column and in two- and three-phase fluidized beds, in order to clarify the influence of gas flow. The electrochemical method, measuring apparent local mass transfer coefficients, was verified and used to obtain the local velocity gradients, shear stresses and total frictional forces. The observed mass transfer rate was independent of liquid velocity, owing to a non-changing flow structure around the particles and not to averaging opposing effects. The identity in flow structure also held for three-phase fluidized beds up to a superficial gas velocity of 5 cm s?1. The dramatic increase in velocity gradient on gas introduction was not a result of decreased homogenous density, but was caused by a change in the turbulent structure around a particle, leaving a larger portion of the total drag as frictional drag, thus improving the mass transfer characteristics of the bed. Use of velocity gradient measurements, including span of fluctuations and exposure time, to predict biomass growth and mechanical degradation in a reactor is also discussed. 相似文献
