Fluidization Characteristics of Circulating Fluidized Bed Boilers

Fluidization Characteristics of a Prototype Fluidized Bed Reactor

The fluidization characteristics of a prototype-fluidized bed laboratory reactor were understudied in order to investigate the suitable conditions at which the dehydrogenation reaction of butane could be carried out. To achieve this, a reactor with an effective volume of 1100ml was fabricated and coupled with temperature and pressure accessories. Zeolites were obtained from the market and clay ...

Cfd Analysis of Circulating Fluidized Bed Combustion

In this paper computational analysis of circulating fluidized bed combustion using the fluent software is analysed. This work is concerned about gas–solid two-phase mixtures flowing upwards through the fast beds. The procedures studied are applicable to all types of fluidized-bed boilers. The type of information resulting from various ways of analyzing the pressure and temperature in fluidized ...

Cluster Dynamics in a Circulating Fluidized Bed

A common hydrodynamic feature in industrial scale circulating fluidized beds is the presence of clusters. The continuous formation and destruction of clusters strongly influences particle hold-up, pressure drop, heat transfer at the wall, and mixing. In this paper fiber optic data is analyzed using discrete wavelet analysis to characterize the dynamic behavior of clusters. Five radial positions...

fluidized bed drying characteristics of soybeans

the present study investigated the influence of air temperature and velocity on the drying kinetics and specific energy consumption during fluidized bed drying of soybean at 80, 100, 120 and 140ºc and airflow rates of 1.8, 3.1 and 4.5 m s-1. six mathematical models for describing the fluidized bed drying behavior were investigated. the value of the drying rate coefficient (k) increased with inc...
