气液固微型流化床兼具微流控系统和宏观流化床的优点,具有潜在的工业应用价值,但是,其应用基础研究十分缺乏。采用床径为1.6、2.0、2.4 mm的微型流化床,平均粒径为160、190、220 μm的玻璃珠,以NaOH水溶液吸收CO₂气体为气液传质研究物系,在三相流动研究的基础上,考察了表观气速、表观液速、床径、粒径等对三相微型流化床气液体积传质系数的影响。结果表明：给定其他条件,增加表观气速和表观液速,均使气液体积传质系数增大;表观气速主要改变气含率和气液相界面积,而表观液速主要改变液相传质系数;床径减小,气液相界面积和气液体积传质系数都有所增加;在气液两相微型鼓泡塔中加入固体颗粒,形成三相分散鼓泡流型,当其固含率在0.15~0.30范围内,可显著增强气液传质,其气液体积传质系数是气液微鼓泡塔的1.1~1.5倍;与宏观流化床相比,相同条件下微型床的相界面积为它的5~10倍,是微型流化床具有更大体积传质系数的主要影响因素。

在耦合流化床反应器大型冷模实验装置上,考察了不同表观气速下FCC颗粒在耦合流化床内截面平均密度的轴向分布. 结果表明,反应器轴向固含率可分为底部流化床区域和上部提升管区域. 前者的密相区平均固含率随表观气速增大而减小;后者的平均固含率随表观气速Ug增大而增大,Ug<0.58 m/s时固含率分布均匀,Ug=0.70~1.04 m/s时提升管出口出现约束返混区(>8.62 m),Ug>1.16 m/s时提升管底部出现密度重整区(3.82~4.57 m)、加速平稳区(4.57~8.62 m)和出口返混区(>8.62 m). 确定了耦合反应器内提升管区域截面平均固含率的影响参数,并利用实验数据回归了平均固含率的轴向分布经验模型,计算值与实验值吻合较好.

气液固三相流化床层膨胀特性实验分析

为分析气液固三相流化床床层特性,选用两种粒径接近、密度不同的颗粒:塑料颗粒(湿堆积密度1 273 kg/m~3,平均直径750μm)和陶粒(湿堆积密度1 680 kg/m~3,平均直径800μm),以常温空气为气相、水为液相。实验装置内径0.13 m,全床高度4.75 m,实验液柱高度3.5 m,床内颗粒有足够的膨胀高度。分别测试了液速0—13 mm/s,气速0—12 mm/s条件下的床层高度,研究气液速对塑料颗粒和陶粒床层膨胀率的影响。研究结果显示液速较低时床层收缩,随着气速增加,收缩率增大;液速较高时,膨胀率大于0,随着表观气速的增加,膨胀率先降低,表观气速大于临界值后,膨胀率将增大;除高气速外,床层膨胀率总是随着液速的升高而增大。相同气速、液速条件下,大密度陶粒的床层膨胀(收缩)率大于塑料颗粒。     

Estimation of liquid phase mixing due to solids in a turbulent bed contactor

The mixing in two-phase gas-liquid and three-phase gas-liquid-solid system (turbulent bed contactor) is evaluated through residence time distribution (RTD) studies in terms of Peclet number. RTD experiments are conducted for various gas and liquid velocities, and number of stages for two- and three-phase systems. Since the mean residence time is very short in both the systems, a mixed flow tank with exponential decay RTD is used in series. After deconvolution, the RTD of the system is obtained. The experimental RTD curves are satisfactorily compared with the axial dispersion model and Peclet numbers are evaluated for all the experiments. The axial dispersion coefficients are calculated from Peclet numbers. With this study, it is thought that liquid phase mixing may be controlled by changing the quantity of solid particles in the bed.     

Influence of high density particles in reduction of axial dispersion in liquid fluidized bed with residence time distribution curve studies

iquid phase RTD curves were investigated in classical fixed and fluidized bed regimes with high density particles. The effect of liquid velocity was studied on bed hydrodynamics. Using an impulse tracer injection technique in a column of 5 cm inner diameter and 1.2 m height, liquid RTD, mean residence time (MRT), axial dispersion coefficient (ADC) and vessel dispersion number (N _D ) were determined. ADC increases with liquid superficial velocity. It varied from 4.63 to 20.7 cm²/s for the particle Reynolds number of 43 to 279, respectively. The experimental results show that the hight density particles cause less ADC than the low density particles at an identical Reynolds number.

Effects of internals on phase holdup and backmixing in a slightlyexpanded-bed reactor with gas-liquid concurrent upflow

Five different internals were designed, and their effects on phase holdup and backmixing were investigated in a gas-liquid concurrent upflow reactor where the spherical alumina packing particles of three diameters (3.0, 4.5 and 6.0 mm) were slightly expanded under the conditions of varied superficial gas velocities (6.77×10^-2-3.61×10^-1 m·s^-1) and superficial liquid velocities (9.47×10^-4-2.17×10^-3 m·s^-1). The experimental results show that the gas holdup increases with the superficial gas velocity and particle size, opposite to the variational trend of liquid holdup. When an internal component is installed amid the upflow reactor, a higher gas holdup, a less liquid holdup and a larger Peclet number characterizing the weaker backmixing are obtained compared to those in the bed without internals under the same operating conditions. Additionally, the minimal backmixing is observed in the reactor equipped with the internals with a novel multi-step design. Finally, empirical correlations were proposed for estimating gas holdup, liquid holdup and Peclet number with the relative deviations within 11%, 12% and 25%, respectively.     

沸腾床内液相的返混特性

在直径0.3 m、总高7.2 m的沸腾床反应器内采用脉冲示踪法研究液相的返混特性。实验中分别以空气和水作为气相和液相,气体操作速度从0.26 cm·s^-1变至12.97 cm·s^-1,液体表观速度固定为0.86 cm·s^-1。采用三氧化二铝颗粒作为固相,其中固体颗粒的平均粒径为0.4 mm,床层固体含量（体积分数）从0变至42.9%。实验结果表明,在所有考察条件下每组响应曲线均存在明显的长拖尾现象,沸腾床内存在剧烈的液体返混现象。尝试采用带回流的多釜串联模型拟合实验数据,结果表明模型预测值与实验数据吻合得非常好,其中拟合得到的全混釜个数N为8,回流比k从1.320至4.218不等,方差预测值与实验值之间的最大误差不超过+18%。     

Modeling and Simulation of Gas-Liquid-Solid Three-Phase Fluidization

A closed Eulerian/Eulerian/Lagrangian mathematical model (E/E/L model) for simulating the local flow characteristics of gas-liquid-solid three-phase fluidization systems was established by combining the Two Fluid Model (TFM) and the Distinct Element Method (DEM). This model was based on the fundamental equations of fluid mechanics. The motion of particles was described in the Lagrangian coordinates, while the gas phase and the liquid phase were dealt with in the Eulerian coordinates. Based on IPSA and PSIC solution techniques, the program of simulating gas-liquid-solid local flow was achieved. The predicted results of local gas holdup and local solid holdup as well as local axial liquid velocity agree with the corresponding experimental data of a gas-liquid-solid three-phase fluidized bed, and the applicability and reliability of this proposed model were validated.

气-液-固三相循环流化床中的液相轴向扩散

The effects of liquid viscosities, solid circulating rates, liquid and gas velocities and phase holdups on the axial dispersion coefficient, Dax, were investigated in a gas-liquid-solid circulating fluidized bed (GLSCFB).Liquid viscosity promotes the axial liquid backmixing when solid particles and gas bubbles are present. Increases in gas velocities and solid circulating rates lead to higher Dax. The effects of liquid velocity on Dax are associated with liquid viscosity. Compared with conventional expanded beds, the GLSCFBs hold less axial liquid dispersion,approaching ideal plug-flow reactors.     

Axial gas dispersion in a fluidized bed of polyethylene particles

Gas mixing behavior was investigated in a residence time distribution experiment in a bubbling fluidized bed of 0.07 m ID and 0.80 m high. Linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) particles having a mean diameter of 772 Μm and a particle size range of 200-1,500 Μm were employed as the bed material. The stimulus-response technique with CO₂ as a tracer gas was performed for the RTD study. The effects of gas velocity, aspect ratio (H₀/D) and scale-up on the axial gas dispersion were determined from the unsteady-state dispersion model, and the residence time distributions of gas in the fluidized bed were compared with the ideal reactors. It was found that axial dispersion depends on the gas velocity and aspect ratio of the bed. The dimensionless dispersion coefficient was correlated with Reynolds number and aspect ratio.
