Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modelling of the effect of distributor plate geometry in the bubbling fluidized bed reactor

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2023
Air distribution is the primary factor that influences the performance of fluidized beds. To understand the hydrodynamics and operation of a fluidized bed, an assessment of the airflow and its distribution is essential.

Frictional properties and microstructural evolution of dry and wet calcite–dolomite gouges [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2021
Calcite and dolomite are the two most common minerals in carbonate-bearing faults and shear zones. Motivated by observations of exhumed seismogenic faults in the Italian Central Apennines, we used a rotary-shear apparatus to investigate the frictional ...

Gas Fluidisation of Nano-particle Assemblies: Modified Geldart classification to account for multiple-scale fluidisation of agglomerates and clusters

open access: yesKONA Powder and Particle Journal, 2014
Recent literature of the past several years has borne out gas fluidisation phenomena of nano-particle beds and assemblies quite unlike the conventional behaviour observed in fluidisation of micron size or larger ...

CFD-simulation of gas-solid flow in bubbling fluidized bed reactor [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2022
The hydrodynamic behaviour of gas-solid flow has been studied in a two-dimensional bubbling fluidized bed reactor filled with particles of 275 µm in size, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD).

A Fluidisation Mechanism for Secondary Hydroeruptions in Pyroclastic Flow Deposits

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Heating of water under hot pyroclastic flow deposits can drive hydroeruptions, forming craters and aprons of secondary deposits. According to the established conceptual model, steam pressure builds until failure of the pyroclastic overburden and a ...

The Influence of Operating Parameters on Adsorption/Desorption Characteristics and Performance of the Fluidised Desiccant Cooler

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
This paper concerns the issue of the proper selection of the operating parameters of the fluidised desiccant cooler. Despite the fact that fluidised desiccant cooling technology is being reported in the literature as an efficient way to provide cooling ...

A Methodology for Measuring the Heat Release Efficiency in Bubbling Fluidised Bed Combustors

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
Differences in the densities of bed material and—especially biogenic—solid fuels prevent an ideal mixture within bubbling fluidised bed (BFB) combustors. So, the presence of fuel particles is usually observed mainly near the surface of the fluidised bed.
