Dimensionless Number Group Analysis of Surface-Treated Powders

open access: yesPowders, 2023
Modeling powder properties remains a complex and difficult area of study because particulate materials can behave differently under variable conditions based on their bulk and surface-level properties.

Minimum and Full Fluidization Velocity for Alumina Used in the Aluminum Smelter

open access: yesInternational Journal of Engineering Business Management, 2011
Fluidization is an engineering unit operation that occurs when a fluid (liquid or gas) ascends through a bed of particles, and these particles get a velocity of minimum fluidization V mf enough to stay in suspension, but without carrying them in the ...

Modeling of the Minimum Fluidization Velocity and the Incipient Fluidization Pressure Drop in a Conical Fluidized Bed with Negative Pressure

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
The modeling of the minimum fluidization velocity (U0mf) and the incipient fluidization pressure drop (ΔPmf) is a valuable research topic in the fluidization field.

A Study of Fluctuation and Expansion Ratios for Gas-Solid Fluidized Columns

open access: yesJournal of Engineering, 2020
The fluctuation and expansion ratios have been studied for cylindrical gas-solid fluidized columns by using air as fluidizing medium and Paracetamol as the bed material. The variables were the column diameter (0.0762, 0.15, and 0.18 m), static bed height

Effect of Fines Content on Fluidity of FCC Catalysts for Stable Operation of Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
Effect of fines content (weight % of particles with diameter less than 45 μm) on bed fluidity was determined to get a base for good fluidization quality in the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) unit.

CFD simulations to study bed characteristics in gas–Solid fluidized beds with binary mixtures of Geldart-B particles: A qualitative analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2023
The bed dynamics of unary and binary fluidized beds play a key role in understanding the pressure drop and hence provides an opportunity for performance improvement of the beds.

Evaluation of correlations for minimum fluidization velocity (U) in gas-solid fluidization

open access: yesPowder Technology, 2018
Abstract The minimum fluidization velocity (Umf), defined as the superficial gas velocity at which the drag force of the upward moving gas becomes equal to the weight of the particles in the bed, is one of the most important parameters associated with a fluidized bed system.

Minimum Fluidization Velocity and Reduction Behavior of Combusted Iron Powder in a Fluidized Bed

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2022
The fluidization and reduction behavior of micron-sized iron oxide powder, produced by iron combustion, is studied in a lab-scale cylindrical fluidized bed. The minimum fluidization velocity umf is found to stabilize above normalized static bed heights of 0.5 H/D (static bed height divided by the bed diameter).

Fluidization of fine coal particles in an ultrasound enhanced gas-solid fluidized bed

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Chemical Engineering
Coal continues to be one of the most important primary energy sources and is a major contributor to economic growth, especially in the developing world. Coal fines are an unavoidable by-product of coal extraction. Fine coal is classified as waste when it
