Effect of cohesive powders on pressure fluctuation characteristics of a binary gas-solid fluidized bed

The effect of cohesive particles on the pressure fluctuations was experimentally investigated in a binary gas-solid fluidized bed. The pressure fluctuation signals were measured by differential pressure sensors under conditions of various weight percentages of cohesive particles. The cohesive particles increased the fixed bed pressure drop per unit height and decreased the minimum fluidization velocity. The Wen & Yu equation well predicts the minimum fluidization velocity of the binary system. The addition of cohesive particles slightly decreased the bubble size in bubbling flow regime when the cohesive particles and the coarse particles mixed well, while the bubble size greatly decreased when the cohesive particles agglomerated on the bed surface. The time series of pressure fluctuations was analyzed by using the methods of time domain, frequency domain and wavelet transformation. The normalized standard deviation of pressure fluctuations decreased with increasing weight percentages of cohesive particles. A wide bandwidth frequency of 0 to 1Hz got narrower with a single peak around 0.6Hz with an increase in proportion of the cohesive particles. The meso-energy and micro-energy of pressure fluctuations were decreasing with increasing cohesive particles proportions, which indicated that adding cohesive particles could reduce the energy dissipation of bubble and particle fluctuations.

应用压力传感器研究了不同筛分粒径的硅粉的流化性质，证实流化床层的压力脉动标准方差σp随着表观气速的增加而线性增大, 根据σp=0的条件即可确定流化床的初始流化气速Umf. 此Umf与传统压降变化法得到的实验结果基本一致. 对测得的不同筛分粒级的硅粉的Umf进行拟合，得到了Umf与相应粒级平均粒径的关联式Umf=0.014e10(d–0.28)–0.012e–10(d–0.28)+0.065. 对双粒级复配混合颗粒体系的σp进行的实验研究发现，其σp介于相关单粒级体系的σp之间，并且粗颗粒组份的比例对σp的影响较大.     

Determination of minimum fluidization velocity by the statistical analysis of pressure fluctuations in a gas—solid fluidized bed

The pressure fluctuations in a gas—solid fluidized bed were measured by a differential pressure transducer (DPT). It was found from this study that the measuring height on the axis of a bed was a very important factor for the determination of minimum fluidization velocity from the linear relationship between standard deviation and air velocity. That is, the linearity between two parameters is strongly dependent on the distance above the distributor, because the pressure fluctuations are influenced by the jet formed at the distributor and the bubble coalescence, which depend on particle size and air velocity.

Wavelet Analysis of Particle Concentration Signals in an Acoustic Bubbling Fluidized Bed

The time series of fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) particle concentrations were measured by an optical fiber probe under conditions of different sound pressure levels and sound frequencies in an acoustic bubbling fluidized bed (? 140 mm × 1600 mm). The results show that the minimum fluidization velocity had a minimum value when the sound wave frequency was 150 Hz. Under the same sound frequency, the fluidization velocity decreased as the sound pressure level increased. The particle concentration signals in an acoustic fluidized bed were also analyzed by means of wavelet analysis. On the basis of discrete wavelet transform, an original signal was resolved into five detailed scale signals. By using wavelet energy analysis, it was found that the peak frequency of the scale 3 or 4 detail wavelet signals represents the bubbling frequency and the peak amplitude for the bubble size. The results indicate that the bubbling frequency and bubble size decreased with increasing sound pressure level at a given frequency. In addition they decreased with increasing sound frequency ranging from 50–150 Hz, but further increased with increasing sound frequency ranging from 150–500 Hz.     

Investigation of Hydrodynamics of High‐Temperature Fluidized Beds by Pressure Fluctuations

Hydrodynamics of a gas‐solid fluidized bed at elevated temperatures was investigated by analyzing pressure fluctuations in time and frequency domains. Sand particles were fluidized with air at various bed temperatures. At a constant gas velocity, the standard deviation, power spectrum density function, and wide‐band energy of pressure fluctuations reach a maximum at 300 °C. Increasing the temperature to this value causes larger bubble sizes and after the bubbles reach their maximum size, they break into smaller bubbles. The Archimedes number decreases with higher temperature and the type of fluidization becomes closer to that of Geldart A boundary at this maximum temperature. Based on estimation of the drag force acting on the emulsion phase, it was concluded that 300 °C was a transition temperature at which the drag force reaches a minimum due to a significant change of interparticle and hydrodynamic forces.

SHANNON ENTROPY ANALYSIS OF DYNAMIC BEHAVIOR OF GELDART GROUP B AND GELDART GROUP D PARTICLES IN A FLUIDIZED BED

Pressure fluctuations resulting from the nonuniform flow behavior of solid particles in a fluidized bed (0.06 m ID × 5.0 m in height) were analyzed using the Shannon entropy analysis method. Particles representing Geldart group B and group D types were employed in the experiments. Results show that with the increase of the superficial gas velocity, transitions between bubbling fluidization, turbulent fluidization, and fast fluidization were effectively detected based on the Shannon entropy of pressure fluctuations in the bed. Meanwhile, a higher static bed height resulted in a larger value of Shannon entropy due to the wall effect of smaller diameter column and the greater resistance to bubble formation affected by the increased weight of the bed. Comparison of the particle types indicated that despite the different details of their behavior, the overall trends were similar.

利用内径150 mm的D型有机玻璃流化床模型,对澳矿、巴西矿、北方矿和钒钛矿典型铁矿粉的流化特性进行了实验研究,获得了其流化特性曲线、初始流化速度和最大床层压降,并将初始流化速度的实测值和理论计算值进行了比较分析. 结果表明,矿粉粒度是影响其流化特性的最主要因素,粒径越大,床层所需要的初始流化速度越大,实测值和理论估算值基本相符;粒度小于0.125 mm钒钛矿流动性较差,在流化过程中易出现沟流现象;粒度范围较宽的矿粉,完全流态化时,细矿粉随气流夹带逸出明显;在粒度相同的情况下,几种不同的铁矿粉的开始流化速度接近,而床层压降有较大差异,巴西矿的床层压降明显大于其他三种铁矿粉. 最大床层压降的最小值均出现在粒度为0.25~0.425 mm,为铁矿粉流态化还原过程中较适宜的粒度范围.     

Pressure Fluctuations in Jet Spouted Beds

Jet spouted beds that consisted of a transparent Plexiglas cylindrical column of 1 m high and a conical base with cone angles of 30°, 36°, and 40° were used in this study. The particles used were spherical glass beads with an average diameter of 1.7, 2.1 and 3 mm, respectively, and particle size of 2.2 – 3.1 mm, non‐spherical rice particles. The effect of size and shape of particles, and static bed height on the minimum jet spouting velocity, and standard deviation of pressure fluctuations, was investigated. The results show that the minimum jet spouting velocity and pressure drop increased as the bed height and particle size increased. The minimum jet spouting velocity could be determined from the plot of standard deviation of pressure fluctuations vs. superficial gas velocity. The results obtained were in close agreement with the results of other methods in the literature.     

Hydrodynamics of Geldart group A particles in gas-solid fluidized beds

Geldart group A particles were fluidized in a 10 cm i.d.×1.8 m high Plexiglas-made bed with ambient air to determine the hydrodynamic properties in a gas-solid fluidized bed. The effects of static bed heights, position of pressure measuring points, differential and absolute pressure fluctuations on the hydrodynamic behavior of a Geldart group A particles in a gas-solid fluidized bed were investigated. The particles used in this study were 80 micrometer FCC powders and 60 micrometer glass beads. The variance of pressure fluctuations was used to find the minimum bubbling velocity. The obtained minimum bubbling velocity was compared with the other methods available in the literature. This method was found to be much easier and had better data reproducibility than the classical visual method or sedimentation method. The variance of pressure fluctuations increased due to the increase of superficial gas velocity and static bed height. The obtained minimum bubbling velocity and pressure fluctuations were found to depend on the measuring position along the axial direction. The effect of measuring position was discussed. Cross-correlation of two pressure signals was used to find the delay time, then the bubble rising velocity.     

气固搅拌流化床压力脉动的小波分析

在内径188 mm、静床高400 mm的搅拌流化床中,采用Geldart D类颗粒为实验物料,通过小波分析研究了不同气速和搅拌桨转速下搅拌流化床的压力脉动行为.实验发现,搅拌桨的转动作用促使在普通流化床中不易散式流态化的D类颗粒形成了散式流态化.随着气速的增加,第1尺度的小波能量特征值在某一个气速范围内发生急剧变化,进而提出了将该气速范围的下限和上限分别定义为临界鼓泡速度和充分鼓泡速度的判据.随搅拌转速的增加,散式流态化的气速操作范围线性增加.在鼓泡流态化状态下,气速是流化床气泡行为的主导因素,搅拌桨转速的增加对气泡产生的频率无明显影响但可使气泡的直径变小.     

Prediction of pressure fluctuations and minimum fluidization velocity of binary mixtures of geldart group b particles in bubbling fluidized beds

A simple method was proposed to find the pressure fluctuations of binary systems of Geldart Group B particles under bubbling fluidized bed conditions. The pressure fluctuations of binary systems could be predicted from the pressure fluctuations of the individual particles component which comprised the binary systems for completely mixed and partially mixed systems. The predicted pressure fluctuations could be used to calculate the minimum fluidization velocity of the binary systems. The predicted and experimental values of pressure fluctuations and the minimum fluidization velocity of binary systems were in fairly good agreement.

Fluidization characteristics of printed circuit board plastic particles with different sizes

The experiments were carried out in a fluidized bed of 56 mm in diameter and 1 600 mm in height to determine the fluidization characteristics of four sizes of printed circuit board plastic (PCBP) particles. It indicates that the fluidization characteristics of PCBP particles depend on the average size and particle type. 123 µm PCBP particles (1#), belonging to Geldart A group with strong viscous force, whose fluidization behaviours was similar to those of Geldart C, was difficult to fluidize. Whereas, 275 µm (2#), 354 µm (3#), and 423 µm (4#) PCBP particles, belonging to Geldart B, were fluidized smoothly. The bed collapsing process is composed of three stages: the bubble escaping stage, the sedimentation stage, and the solid consolidation stage. The collapsing process of 1# PCBP particle lasts 6 s or long. 2#, 3#, and 4# PCBP particles, Geldart group B particles, collapse process consists of the bubble escaping stage and the solid consolidation stage. The minimum fluidization velocities from modified Ergun Equation were agreement with experimental data for 2#, 3#, and 4# PCBP particles.     

Bed height and material density effects on fluidized bed hydrodynamics

Characterizing the hydrodynamics of a fluidized bed is of vital importance to understanding the behavior of this multiphase flow system. Minimum fluidization velocity and gas holdup are two of these key characteristics. Experimental studies addressing the effects of bed height and material density on the minimum fluidization velocity and gas holdup were carried out in this study using a 10.2 cm diameter cylindrical fluidized bed. Three different Geldart type-B particles were tested: glass beads, ground walnut shell, and ground corncob, with material densities of 2600, 1300, and 1000 kg/m³, respectively. The particle size range was selected to be the same for all three materials and corresponded to 500–600 μm. In this study, five different bed height-to-diameter ratios were investigated: H/D=0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, and 3. Minimum fluidization velocity was determined for each H/D ratio using pressure drop measurements. Local time-average gas holdup was determined using non-invasive X-ray computed tomography imaging. Results show that minimum fluidization velocity is not affected by the change in bed height. However, as the material density increased, the minimum fluidization velocity increased. Finally, local time-average gas holdup values revealed that bed hydrodynamics were similar for all bed heights, but differed when the material density was changed.
