Abstract: | The residence time distribution of the solids in multistage fluidisation, wherein downcomers for transferring the solids from stage to stage are provided to the horizontal perforated plates, is experimentally investigated covering a wide range in process variables using flat, baffle and spiral plates developed in the study. The RTD data is modelled using (i) the multiple parameter model, (ii) the diffusional mixing model and (iii) the fractional tank extension model when it is noted that over certain conditions of operation both spiral and baffle plates indicate near piston-flow for the solids without hampering the fluidisation characteristics. |
