On the Mechanism of Bubbling Fluidized-Bed Combustion of Gas Oil

Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 2003
A study has been carried out on atmospheric fluidized-bed combustion (FBC) of conventional liquid fuels at temperatures lower than the value classically adopted for FBC of solid fuels (i.e., 850 °C). The study comprised an experimental program of steady-state tests for characterization of the combustion mechanism, mainly through proper acquisition of ...

Formation of bubbles in a fluidized bed

Powder Technology, 1974
Abstract A bubble of a given radius in a gas-fluidized bed is shown to be sustained by the balance of an electric surface tension around the cavity produced by the electric charges on the particles in the fluidized bed, and the increase in static pressure in the cavity where the gas slows down as it flows through the cavity.

Behaviors of the bubble, cloud, and emulsion phases in a fluidized bed

AIChE Journal, 2007
AbstractAn intrusive bioptical probe provides radial profiles of the PDF (probability density function) of the bubble, the cloud, and the emulsion phases behaviors in a fluidized bed of Geldart‐A particles. The fluidizing velocity ranges between 0.20 and 0.80 m/s. The bed porosity, the overall averaged bubble chords and velocities are well‐predicted by

Combustion of hydrogen in a bubbling fluidized bed

Combustion and Flame, 2009
The combustion of hydrogen in a hot, bubbling bed of quartz sand fluidized by air has been studied for the first time, by injecting hydrogen just above the distributor, via six horizontal fine tubes of Cr/Ni. Overall the fluidizing gas was oxygen-rich, with the composition varying from nearly stoichiometric to very lean mixtures. With the bed initially

Bubbles in Fluidized Beds

1995
Experiments show that a bubble in a fluidized bed behaves like a large bubble in low viscosity liquid. Theory shows that interparticle forces are small round a rising bubble, justifying liquid-like behaviour and giving the rate of gas exchange between the bubble and the particles.

Bubble coalescence in fluidized beds

AIChE Journal, 1970
AbstractThe two‐dimensional motion of two circular bubbles moving in train up through a fluidized bed is considered. By using continuum equations of motion for this two‐phase flow situation, neutral coalescence curves are obtained which indicate, for given bubble radii and distance apart, whether or not the bubbles will coalesce. The conclusions are in

Motion of bubbles in a fluidized bed

Fluid Dynamics, 1975
The steady-state motion of a bubble (a cavity free from suspended particles and occupied solely by the liquid phase) in a fluidized bed of uniform concentration is considered. The change in the shape of the bubble which takes place as it rises through the fluidized bed is established; the rising velocity is determined for both large and small bubbles ...

Bubble Formation at an Orifice in a Fluidized Bed

Nature, 1961
WHEN a gas is passed through a bed of solid particles supported by a porous distributor at a flow-rate sufficient to fluidize the bed, gas bubbles can usually be seen travelling up through the bed and breaking surface at the top. The properties of bubbles in fluidized beds have become the subject of considerable interest recently for the information ...

Instabilities and the formation of bubbles in fluidized beds

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1995
As is well known, most gas-fluidized beds of solid particles bubble; that is, they are traversed by rising regions containing few particles. Most liquid-fluidized beds, on the other hand, do not. The aim of the present paper is to investigate whether this distinction can be accounted for by certain equations of motion which have commonly been used to ...

Chemical reaction in bubbling fluidized beds

Chemical Engineering Science, 1965
Abstract A theory describing the flow within a bubble rising in a fluidized bed is given for both two- and three-dimensional systems. The theory is then related to the effect of bubbles on a fluid/solid reaction in a fluidized bed and three possible models for the fluid flow are outlined, from which it is possible to estimate the conversion in a ...
