在内径90 mm、高7 m的逆流下行床冷态实验装置中,研究了气固逆流下行床中循环锅炉灰(dp=300 mm)颗粒速度的径向分布及其沿轴向发展. 结果表明,局部颗粒速度沿径向分布是不均匀的,在完全发展区,颗粒速度中心和边壁低、在r/R=0.85附近颗粒速度最大. 由大量实验数据回归出预测充分发展段局部颗粒速度的关联式,该公式计算值与实验值的平均相对偏差小于±11%. 不同径向位置的局部颗粒速度沿轴向的变化趋势不同,边壁区域(r/R>0.622)颗粒速度沿轴向单调递增,而中心区域(0相似文献   

大型快速流化床内颗粒浓度和速度分布的实验研究

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.     

喷嘴收缩角度对射流反应器内颗粒浓度分布及发展的影响

为了强化气固射流反应器内颗粒弥散和气固混合性能,采用光纤探针对不同喷嘴收缩射流颗粒浓度分布规律及其发展特性进行了研究;考察了射流速度和颗粒负载率对颗粒浓度分布、质量、动量和回流通量的影响。结果表明,喷嘴收缩效应使颗粒向射流轴线汇聚形成局部浓相区,收缩角的增大使浓相区向喷嘴靠近。回流卷吸和壁面效应的共同作用使颗粒浓度沿径向呈“多段式”分布特征。颗粒在射流轴线的汇聚和边壁区的富集降低了颗粒分布的均匀性。在射流近场,颗粒的质量和动量通量主要发生在射流剪切层;随剪切层的发展其通量峰值向边壁移动,而近壁区的颗粒回流使质量和动量通量显著增加。     

利用光导纤维表征并流下行流化床中颗粒聚凝体的动态特征(英文)

利用光导纤维来表征并流下行流化床中颗粒聚凝体的动态特征。下行床的直径为0.1m、床高10m,操作气速为3.5～10m·s-1,颗粒流率为50～200kg·m-2·s-1。所用颗粒为催化裂化FCC颗粒,直径67μm,密度为1500kg·m-3。研究中首先用灵敏度分析方法建立起确认颗粒聚凝体的最佳条件,由此从所测得的瞬时颗粒浓度数据来获得颗粒聚凝体的各种特性(频率、时间分率、存在时间及平均浓度)。研究发现颗粒聚凝体的性质明显地受到操作条件的影响(气体速度与颗粒流率)以及局部颗粒浓度的影响。颗粒聚凝体的性质亦沿着下行床的轴向与径向发生很大变化。在充分发展段,下行床中心比近壁处有着更强的形成颗粒聚凝体的趋势。靠近下行床的底部,颗粒聚凝体性质沿轴向分布的变化比较缓和。     

水平气力输送管中颗粒浓度分布的数值模拟

以商业软件FLUENT为平台,通过UDF将DEM程序编译进FLUENT,利用DEM与CFD耦合的方法研究了水平管气力输送过程中颗粒粒径和密度对颗粒浓度分布的影响.结果表明,水平管道内颗粒浓度沿轴向方向不断降低,在管中心浓度逐渐扩散,使径向分布逐渐变得均匀;与双欧拉模型的计算结果不同,在管下部的高颗粒浓度区呈现出中心浓度高于边壁浓度的分布,而在管上部则表现为中心浓度低于边壁浓度的分布;随着颗粒密度及颗粒体积的增加,颗粒的跃动距离减少.     

低阶煤在离心双涡流反应器中的流动与传热过程

离心双涡流(CDV)反应器是内置离心力场与双涡流气旋的新型下行床反应器，契合低阶煤快速热解反应特性，但仍需理解其关键传热机制为传热速率调控提供参考。基于大涡模拟和MP-PIC(multiphase particle-in-cell)模型，研究载热颗粒为热源的CDV低阶煤热解器中气固相温度的时空分布特性。结果表明：煤颗粒升温速率可达700 K/s,满足快速热解需要，相比传统下行床，由离心力场在近壁区产生的局部高固含率可在较低的载热颗粒流量下将煤颗粒下行过程中的升温梯度提高到300 K/m以上；除了固含率，气旋长度对传热效果影响显著，相比顶部排气结构，底部排气结构的气旋长度更大，煤颗粒终温更高；底部排气结构的另一个优势在于中心区域气流温度显著低于边壁气流温度，在近壁高温区释放的初级热解产物受向心气流裹挟汇入中心低温区，由于初级热解产物二次反应的程度与其升温速率相关，中心区域的低温环境有利于抑制初级热解产物的二次反应，从而获得更高的焦油收率，且焦油含尘量也较低。     

气固循环床提升管内的局部颗粒浓度及流动发展

采用反射式光纤浓度探头对f100mm×15.1m循环床提升管8个轴向截面上11个径向位置的局部颗粒浓度进行了测量, 分析研究了颗粒浓度径向分布的不均匀性及其沿轴向的发展变化。结果表明:提升管内气固两相流的发展并不同步,而是一个由核心区向边壁区逐渐扩展,并最终达到总体充分发展的过程,该过程主要受边壁区发展过程所控制;相对于核心区,边壁区的发展不仅显著缓慢,而且受操作条件的影响也较显著。实验还发现:在颗粒加速段,无因次颗粒浓度的径向分布不具有相似性,不仅与径向位置有关,而且还与床层截面高度有关。     

60米高矩形截面循环流化床内物料分布冷态试验

为研究超高提升管内的气固流动特性,依托四川白马电厂600MW超临界循环流化床锅炉现有钢架,将原有60m高的提升管冷模试验台的上部20m改为矩形截面的循环流化床提升管试验台。本文重点研究了提升管流化风速对上部颗粒浓度的轴向/截面分布特性及其影响因素。试验结果表明：颗粒浓度和颗粒粒径的分布特性与流化风速和几何结构密切相关,在一定初始床料高度下,随着风速的增加,提升管上部的空隙率沿轴向先不变然后减少,并最终呈现倒C形分布;截面浓度从均匀分布逐渐变为近短边壁处的颗粒浓度要明显大于近长边壁处的不均匀分布;平均颗粒粒径则随风速的增加而增大,沿截面分布均匀,但是沿提升管高度方向平均颗粒粒径沿轴向会略微减小,且提升管上部近短边壁的颗粒粒径要稍小于近长边壁的。     

二元颗粒混合物在下行床反应器中局部颗粒速度的分布

采用PV-4A光导纤维测速仪在一高2m、直径30mm的下行床反应器中较系统地测定了FCC催化剂及玻璃珠各自在6个截面8个不同径向位置局部颗粒速度的轴向及径向分布,研究了操作条件及喷口位置对该两种不同物料局部颗粒速度径向分布的影响,进而将FCC催化剂和玻璃珠两种物料分别同时进入下行床反应器中,考察了以不同混合比组成的二元组分混合物的颗粒速度径向双峰分布特点.最后,分别给出了预测FCC催化剂及玻璃珠的量纲1局部颗粒速度经验关联式.实验结果表明：物性不同的粒子其局部颗粒速度径向分布差别较大,二元组分混合物的颗粒速度径向分布较FCC催化剂单一颗粒趋于均匀,且随表观气速增加,颗粒速度分布双峰特性愈为明显,可见在下行床进入细颗粒的同时加入粗颗粒引起了气固流动机制的变化与颗粒速度分布的平滑.     

Evaluation of downer reactor performance by catalytic ozone decomposition

Radial distribution profiles of ozone concentrations were measured along an 8.50 m high and 0.09 m inside diameter gas/solid co-current down-flow circulating fluidized bed (downer) to characterize the reactor performance. Tests were conducted under a series of operating conditions at room temperature and near atmospheric pressure, with FCC particles as the bed material. Results show that the concentration distribution of the ozone tracer gas correlates well with the flow structure of the downer. There is quite a uniform radial distribution of ozone concentrations in the core region of all tested axial sections in the fully developed region of the downer, except for the near-wall region where there is a sharp decrease in ozone concentration. And there exists a relatively significant non-uniform distribution in the entrance acceleration region of the downer.     

下行气固两相流充分发展段的颗粒浓度

在较宽的操作条件范围内采用光纤颗粒浓度探头测定了下行管(φ100 mm×9.5 m)充分发展段内的真实颗粒浓度,并结合文献上的大量实验数据,系统研究了操作条件、颗粒直径和床层直径对下行气固两相流充分发展段内真实颗粒浓度的影响.结果表明,当操作气速一定时,充分发展段内的颗粒浓度随着颗粒循环速率的增大而线性增加.颗粒直径对下行床充分发展段内颗粒浓度的影响随操作气速的增加而逐渐减弱.床层直径对下行床充分发展段内的颗粒浓度基本上没有影响.所提出的预测关联式能很好地拟合本文及文献上的实验数据.     

Catalytic reaction in a circulating fluidized bed downer: Ozone decomposition

Catalytic ozone decomposition reaction was used to study the performance of a 76 mm i.d. and 5.8 m high gas–solid circulating fluidized bed (CFB) downer reactor. Optical fiber probes and an ultraviolet (UV) ozone analyzer were used to obtain comprehensive information about local solids holdup and ozone concentration profiles at different axial and radial positions at superficial gas velocity of 2–5 m/s and solids circulation rates of 50 and 100 kg/m² s. Axial ozone concentration profiles significantly deviated from the plug-flow behavior, with most conversion occurring in the entrance region or flow developing zone of the downer reactor. Strong correlation was observed between the spatial distributions of solids and extent of reaction; higher local solids holdups cause lower ozone concentrations due to higher reaction rates. Radial gradients of the reactant (ozone) concentrations increased in the middle section of the downer, and decreased with increasing superficial gas velocity and solids circulation rate. Contact efficiency, a measure of the interaction between gas and solids indicated high efficiency in the flow developing zone and decreased with height in the fully developed region.     

气固下行流化床反应器Ⅱ气固两相的流动规律

气固下行流化床反应器气固两相流动过程是比较复杂的，沿轴向气固两相运动可分为第一加速、第二加速和恒速３个运动段，沿径向局部气体速度、颗粒速度和颗粒浓度都具有不同程度的不均匀性。而这种不均匀性是由气固两相顺重力场湍动运动所决定的。和循环床提升管相比，下行管反应器气固两相沿径向分布的不均匀性得到有效地改善，气固可以实现超短接触操作，因而是一种新型高效气固超短接触反应器     

下行气固两相流与管内壁间的摩擦压降

在较宽的操作条件范围内系统测试了下行床床层压力降,获得气固两相流与管内壁间的摩擦压降,提出了下行气固两相流与管壁间摩擦压降的计算模型。结果表明,在下行床的充分发展段,气固两相流与管壁间的摩擦导致表观颗粒浓度显著小于真实颗粒浓度;当表观气速大于8 m·s^-1时,气固两相流与管壁间的摩擦压降接近甚至超过气固两相流重力产生的静压降。在采用压差法测试下行床中的平均颗粒浓度时,如忽略气固两相流与管壁间的摩擦,则可能导致显著的偏差。下行气固两相流与管内壁间的摩擦压降主要来自于颗粒与管壁间的摩擦。颗粒直径对气固两相流与管壁间摩擦压降的影响随着操作气速的提高逐渐减弱。采用提出的摩擦压降模型对表观颗粒浓度进行修正后,预测值与实验值吻合较好。     

Hydrodynamics and reactor performance evaluation of a high flux gas‐solids circulating fluidized bed downer: Experimental study

Reactor performance of a high flux circulating fluidized bed (CFB) downer is studied under superficial gas velocities of 3–7 m/s with solids circulation rate up to 300 kg/m²s using ozone decomposition reaction. Results show that the reactant conversion in the downer is closely related to the hydrodynamics, with solids holdup being the most influential parameter on ozone decomposition. High degree of conversion is achieved at the downer entrance region due to strong gas‐solids interaction as well as higher solids holdup and reactant concentration. Ozone conversion increases with the increase of solids circulation rate and/or the decrease of superficial gas velocity. Overall conversion in the CFB downer is less than but very close to that in an ideal plug flow reactor indicating a good reactor performance in the downer because of the nearly “ideal” hydrodynamics in downer reactors. © 2014 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 60: 3412–3423, 2014     

A CFD-DEM study of the cluster behavior in riser and downer reactors

This paper presents a numerical study of the particle cluster behavior in a riser/downer reactor by means of combined computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and discrete element method (DEM), in which the motion of discrete particles is obtained by solving Newton's equations of motion and the flow of continuum gas by the Navier-Stokes equations. It is shown that the existence of particle clusters, unique to the solid flow behavior in such a reactor, can be predicted from this first principle approach. The results demonstrate that there are two types of clusters in a riser and downer: one is in the near wall region where the velocities of particles are low; the other is in the center region where the velocities of particles are high. While the extent of particle aggregation appears to be similar, the duration time for the first type in a downer is shorter than in a riser. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the formation of clusters is affected by a range of variables related to operational conditions, particle properties, and bed properties and geometry. The increase of solid volume fraction, sliding and rolling friction between particles or between particles and wall, or damping coefficient can enhance the formation of clusters. The use of multi-sized particles can also promote the formation of clusters. But the increase of gas velocity or use of a wider bed can suppress the formation of clusters. The van der Waals force may enhance the formation of clusters when solid concentration is high but suppress the formation of clusters near the wall region when solid concentration is low.     

Mass transfer and reaction performance of the downer and its hydrodynamic explanation

Catalytic decomposition of ozone was carried out in a 15‐m high, 90‐mm inner diameter downer reactor. Radial distributions of ozone concentration at different axial elevations under different operating conditions were measured. The results were explained from the flow structure experimental data and corresponding signal analysis in time domain and frequency domain. The aggregation status of solid particles, relative movement between the gas and solids, and the dynamic behaviour of clusters were considered to have a joint influence on the mass transfer and reaction process in the downer.     

A Comparison of Flow Dynamics and Flow Structure in a Riser and a Downer

Flow development and flow dynamics were systematically investigated using local solids concentration measurements in a pair consisting of a downer (0.1 m I.D., 9.3 m high) and a riser of the same diameter (0.1 m I.D., 15.1 m high). Both statistical and chaos analysis were employed. Values for the Kolmogorov entropy (K), correlation dimension (D), and Hurst exponent (H) were estimated from time series of solids concentration measurements. Axial distributions of chaos parameters were more complex in the downer than those in the riser, especially in the entrance section. Flow in the downer was more uniform with a flatter core in all the radial profiles of chaos parameters. The radial profiles of K varied significantly with increasing axial levels due to different clustering behavior in the wall region of the downer. In both the riser and the downer, anti‐persistent flow in the core region and persistent flow behavior near the wall were identified from the profiles of H. Different flow behavior in the region close to the wall in the downer and riser was characterized from the combination of the three chaos parameters. Relationships between chaos parameters and local time‐averaged solids holdup in the core and wall regions of the developed sections in both the downer and riser were also analyzed.
