| Abstract: | A predictive mathematical model based on pressure drop in the riser of an Internally Circulating Fluidized Bed (ICFB) is developed to predict solids circulation rate (Gs). The values of Gs predicted using the model agree well with the experimental data. The model also predicts well Gs at higher operating temperatures in the riser of an ICFB. |
