GAS-SOLIDS FLOW PATTERNS IN A CONCURRENT DOWNFLOW FAST FLUIDIZED BED(CDFFB)

Radial profiles of solid concentration and velocity for concurrent downward gas-solid suspension in a140mm inside diameter fast fluidized bed were investigated.The influence of gas velocity,solid circulating rateand axial position on radial profiles of solid concentration and particle velocity has been examined.It hasbeen found that an annular region of high solid concentration exists at r/R=0.94.At both the center and wallregion,the solid concentration and the particle velocities are relatively low.The shape of radial solid con-centration profile curves is mainly dependent on the cross-section averaged voidage,and the shape of radialparticle velocity profile is mainly affected by the gas velocity and cross-section averaged voidage.Based on the radial profiles of solid concentration and particle velocity,the solid mass flux profile and thenonuniformity of solids flow are discussed in this paper.It is shown that solids flow in CDFFB is much moreuniform than that in UFFB.

湍动流化床过渡段固含率分布特征的实验及数值模拟

在湍动流化床中,过渡段对于包括甲醇制烯烃在内的气固催化快反应有着重要的作用。采用PV6D反射型光纤探针对内径95 mm的湍动流化床内过渡段的固含率分布和脉动参数进行了测量,分别考察了表观气速和静床高的影响,并采用修正的基于颗粒动力学的三段曳力双流体模型进行模拟。实验表明,湍动流化床过渡段中固含率的轴向分布呈现S型和指数型两种类型,固含率轴向与径向分布都在过渡段内出现最大梯度,表明过渡段中固体浓度分布比稀相段和密相段更不均匀。表观气速和静床高的变化将导致S型和指数型分布的相互转变,并且对过渡段底部与壁面附近的固体高浓度区影响最为显著。局部固含率脉动概率密度分布表明,在静床高较小时,随着气速的增大,床层下部气含率最大值位置将从中心区移动至环隙区,呈现气含率的双峰型分布。本文提出的修正三段曳力模型考虑了颗粒团聚的影响,对过渡段中分布板影响区之外的固含率分布均能较好地模拟。     

Segregation by size difference in a conical fluidized bed of pharmaceutical granulate

Axial and radial segregation studies of a dry placebo pharmaceutical granulate exhibiting a continuous, bimodal particle size distribution have been carried out in a bench-scale conical fluidized bed. Experiments were conducted at superficial gas velocities of 0.5, 0.75, and 1.0 m/s based on the cone inlet diameter and static bed heights of 0.12 and 0.17 m above the distributor. Axial profiles of the mixing index show that granule greater than 800 μm segregate to the bottom of the bed. Radial segregation data shows that the large granule tends to accumulate at the centre bottom and becomes better mixed as the gas velocity is increased. Static bed height showed no influence on radial or axial segregation in this study. It is theorized that observed segregation patterns are because the local velocities in the dilute central core region of the conical bed are less than the terminal velocities of the largest particles in the particle size distribution.     

Effects of Draft Tubes on Particle Velocity Profiles in Spouted Beds

The vertical particle velocity profiles in a full‐column cylindrical conical spouted bed, with or without a draft tube, are measured using a fibre optic probe system. The profiles have different characteristics for a draft tube spouted bed (DTSB) than for a conventional spouted bed (CSB). The spout of a CSB consists of a central flow where particle velocities fit exponential distributions, and a boundary layer where particle velocities are nearly uniform. The spout of a DTSB has no boundary layer and its radial particle velocity profiles are approximately linear. The particle velocities in the spout of a DTSB increase when superficial gas velocity increases, draft tube diameter decreases, or when entrainment height decreases. A kinematic model has been used to simulate the granular flow in the annulus of a CSB and DTSB, and they are compared with the experiments. The particle velocities in the annulus of a DTSB are much lower than that of a CSB. Their radial profiles are also different with a CSB. The dependence of particle velocities in the annulus of a DTSB on superficial gas velocity, draft tube diameter, and entrainment height are also discussed. One concludes that the draft tube diameter and entrainment height are two key factors for the solid circulation rate of a DTSB.     

多段分级转化流化床提升管速度场的研究

针对流化床煤气化过程中需要长气固接触时间和高固体浓度,开发了耦合灰熔聚流化床和提升管的多段分级转化流化床。为了研究多段分级转化流化床提升管中局部颗粒速度的径向、轴向分布,在不同的操作条件下,采用PV-6型颗粒速度测量仪在冷态实验装置中系统测定提升管内局部颗粒速度。实验结果表明:提升管中任何径向、轴向位置的颗粒速度随着操作气速的增大而增大,随循环量的增加而减小。操作条件对中心区颗粒速度变化的影响明显高于边壁区。颗粒的加速首先发生在提升管中心区域,然后向边壁区域扩展。颗粒速度径向分布的不均匀性沿轴向逐渐增大,并且受操作气速影响比较大。     

Experimental Study on Flow Behavior in a Gas‐Solid Fluidized Bed for the Methanol‐to‐Olefins Process

A cold model experimental system is established to investigate the flow behavior in a gas‐solid fluidized bed for the methanol‐to‐olefins process catalyzed by SAPO‐34. The system comprises a gas distributor in a F 300 × 5000 mm acrylic column, double fiber optic probe system and a series of cyclones. The experiments are carried out under conditions of atmospheric pressure and room temperature with different superficial velocities (0.3930–0.7860 m s^–1) and different initial bed heights (600–1200 mm). The effects of radial distance, axial distance, superficial gas velocity, and initial bed height on the solid concentration and particle velocity in the bed are discussed. The time‐averaged solid concentration and rising particle velocity profiles under different conditions are obtained. The results show that an increase in the value of r/R or initial bed height results in an increase in the solid concentration but a decrease in the rising particle velocity in the dense phase area, while improvement of the superficial gas velocity has a negative influence on the solid concentration but results in an increase in the rising particle velocity.

采用压力巡检仪和光纤测量仪,对直径300 mm的快速流化床反应器内气固两相流动特性进行了研究,考察了操作条件对快速床轴、径向催化剂颗粒浓度、颗粒速度、筛分分布等的影响. 结果表明,当操作气速提高到2.0~2.6 m/s,相应的催化剂循环强度在60~160 kg/(m2×s),床层密度可保持在50~650 kg/m3;催化剂颗粒浓度在径向上呈中心低、边壁高的不均匀分布,轴向上各径向位置在颗粒加速区逐渐降低、在充分发展区趋于稳定、随表观气速增大或催化剂循环强度减小而减小,且径向均匀性变好,在r/R<0.7的中心区域趋于一致;颗粒速度在径向上呈中心高、边壁低的抛物线形分布,且随操作气速增大或催化剂循环强度增大而更加明显.     

耦合流化床提升管内固含率径向分布及沿轴向的发展

针对催化汽油辅助反应器改质降烯烃工艺,结合提升管与流化床的特点,建立了一套提升管与流化床耦合反应器大型冷态实验装置. 在不同操作条件下,采用PV-4A型光纤密度仪测定了提升管内固含率沿径向的分布规律. 结果表明,固含率径向分布整体上呈现中心小、边壁大的环-核结构分布特征;沿轴向向上,各径向位置上的固含率在颗粒加速区逐渐降低,在充分发展区趋于稳定,在颗粒约束返混区又有所升高;各径向位置上的固含率随表观气速增大或颗粒循环强度减小而减小,且均匀性变好;提升管上部流化床内颗粒静床高度只对颗粒约束返混区内固含率径向分布有影响,而对颗粒加速区和充分发展区的固含率径向分布影响较小;当表观气速较低或颗粒循环强度较大时,颗粒约束返混区上部局部固含率最大值出现在无因次半径f=r/R=0.7附近,此时局部无因次固含率es*=es/ 沿轴向在H>5.33 m时不再具有相似性;通过比较径向不均匀指数,得到轴向各区固含率径向分布趋于均匀的程度依次为：充分发展区>颗粒约束返混区>颗粒加速区. 利用实验数据回归出了局部固含率径向分布关联式,其平均相对误差在6%以内.     

提升管循环流化床气,固局部滑落速度的分布

本研究采用光纤激光多普勒测速仪（ＬＤＶ），通过两列信号处理系统，同时测定了气体和颗粒局部速度，研究了低密度循环流化床提升管内局部滑落速度的变化规律。实验结果表明，提高颗粒循环速率，在任一径向位置的气固滑落速度均增加；提高气体表观速度，反而使气固之间局部滑落速度减小。由于固体颗粒在近壁区的团聚行为，在近壁区气、固局部滑落速度出现一个极大值。     

Annular wall layer thickness in circulating fluidized bed risers

The thickness of downward-flowing annular wall layers in circulating fluidized bed risers has been determined in the literature based on measured radial profiles of both local particle velocity and solids flux. The thickness of the wall layer is shown to be larger based on solids flux profiles than when based on particle velocity profiles, because fluctuations in local instantaneous particle velocity are correlated with fluctuations in local solids concentration. A new correlation is developed to predict the time-average thickness of the downflowing particle streamer layer based on solids flux measurements as a function of the cross-sectional average voidage. It successfully accounts for the variation of the wall layer thickness with axial location and solids circulation rate.     

Axial liquid dispersion in a liquid–solid circulating fluidized bed

Although axial liquid dispersion has been studied extensively in particulate fluidized beds, no data has been reported previously in a liquid–solid circulating fluidized bed (LSCFb). In this work, the axial liquid dispersions at various radial positions were measured in an LSCFB of 76 mm in diameter and 3.0 m in height using a dual conductivity probe. The results reveal that the axial liquid dispersion is affected not only by the operating conditions but by the radial positions as well. A local axial dispersion model is proposed to describe the axial liquid dispersion at various radial positions. The local axial liquid dispersion coefficients determined by the proposed model are greater at the axis than near the wall region of the riser. This nonuniformity of axial liquid dispersion is believed to be caused by the radial nonuniform distribution of liquid velocity, and bed voidage in the LSCFB can significantly affect the axial liquid dispersion.     

耦合反应器提升管段颗粒速度分布及约束特性

A large-scale cold model experimental setup of a riser-fluidized bed coupled reactor was established according to the olefin reduction technology with an auxiliary reactor for FCC naphtha upgrading.Distributions of particle velocity in the riser section were experimentally investigated in the setup.Furthermore,the restriction index of particle velocity was defined to quantitatively show the restriction effects of the riser outlet lotus-shaped distributor and the upper fluidized bed on the particle flow behavior in the riser.The experimental results showed that the riser could be divided into two regions in the longitudinal direction,i.e.,lower traditional transport region and upper restriction region.In the longitudinal direction,the averaged cross-sectional particle velocity in the traditional transport region increased firstly,and then tended to be smooth,while decreased in the restriction region.With the increase of static bed height in the upper fluidized bed,the local particle velocity decreased,and the tendency of change in the core region is more than that in the wall region.Restriction effects of the lotus-shaped distributor and the upper fluidized bed on particle flow behavior enhanced with the increases of superficial gas velocity,solids flux and static bed height in the upper fluidized bed.In the same cross-section,outlet restriction effects enhanced with the increase of the dimensionless radial position r/R,and would not change when r/R≥0.5.     

Particle velocity profiles and solid flow patterns in spouted beds

A fibre optic probe system was used to measure the profiles of vertical particle velocities in the spout and the fountain of a half-column and a full-column spouted bed. In addition, a fibre optic image probe was employed to measure vertical particle velocity profiles in the annulus of the full-column. In the spout, radial profiles of vertical particle velocities were of near Gaussian distribution. Particle velocities along the spout axis in the half-column were 30% lower than in the full-column under identical operating conditions. In the half column, particle velocities adjacent to the front plate were approximately 24% lower than a few millimeters away. The fountain core expanded suddenly near the bed surface and then gradually contracted with height. The model of Grace and Mathur (1978) gave good predictions of fountain heights for the full-column. In the annulus region, there was a 28% difference between particle velocities adjacent to the column wall and those only 2 mm away. The integrated upward solids mass flow in the spout and the downward solids flow in the annulus matched well at different bed levels.     

Phase holdup and liquid dispersion in gas-liquid-solid circulating fluidized beds

Axial and radial profiles of gas and solids holdups have been studied in agas-liquid-solid circulating fluidized bed at 140mm i.d..Experimental results indicate that the axialand radial profiles of gas and solids holdups are more uniform than those in a conventionalfluidized bed.Axial and radial liquid dispersion coefficients in the gas-liquid-solid circulating fluidizedbed are investigated for the first time.It is found that axial and radial liquid dispersioncoefficients increases with increaes in gas velocity and solids holdup.The liquid velocity has littleinfluence on the axial liquid dispersion coefficient,but would adversely affect the redial liquiddispersion coefficient.It can be concluded that the gas-liquid-solid circulating fluidized bed hasadvantages such as better interphase contact and lower liquid dispersion along the axial directionover the expanded bed.

Detailed measurements of flow structure inside a dense gas–solids fluidized bed

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 U_g, 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.     

Liquid Radial Dispersion in Liquid-solid Circulating Fluidized Beds with Viscous Liquid Medium

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.
