Confined fluidised bed porosity in the light of bubbling-bed models [PDF]
Chemical and Process Engineering, 2012 Abstract Based on hydrodynamic data, Kato-Wen and Kunii-Levenspiel bubbling-bed model parameters, supplemented with assumptions characteristic for tested confined fluidised bed, were analysed. The calculated bubble diameters and the bed composition proved essential influence of inter-particle space of packed compacted component onto fluidisation ...

Fluidization of Group B particles with a rotating distributor [PDF]
, 2008 A novel rotating distributor fluidized bed is presented. The distributor is a rotating perforated plate, with 1% open-area ratio. This work evaluates the performance of this new design, considering pressure drop, Δp, and quality of fluidization.

EFFECT OF OPERATING PARAMETERS ON THE MINIMUM FLUIDISATION VELOCITY OF AN INCLINED FLUIDISED BED [PDF]
, 2003 Fluidisation phenomena in an inclined fluidised bed (IFB) systems are poorly understood and receive less attention as compared to that of vertical fluidised bed although in practice there are many fluidised bed systems not vertically oriented.

Bubble Behaviour in Fluidised Beds at Elevated Pressures
Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, 2011 AbstractLow density polyethylene and polypropylene are produced at large scale via the Unipol process. In this process catalyst particles are fluidised with monomer gas and grow into polymeric particles up to a size of 1 mm. The process is operated at 20–25 bar.

The influence of multiple tubes on the tube-to-bed heat transfer in a fluidised bed [PDF]
, 2010 There have been few studies modelling both flow and heat transfer in fluidised beds. The kinetic theory of granular flow (KTGF) has been used for flow prediction in the past without heat transfer modelling.
