Three Fundamental Granular Flow Experiments and CPFD Predictions
In this paper by Dale M. Snider, granular flow of three granular flow experiments is predicted by a CPFD numerical scheme in three dimension using the true particle size distribution.
Understanding Streaming Flow in Deep Fluidized Beds
Gas streaming is the severe bypassing of gas that can occur in deep, bubbling fluidized beds. Gas bypassing consists of a large jet that precesses around the walls of the fluidized bed. Details of possible mechanisms and possible techniques for detecting gas-bypassing are presented in this report.
A New Blended Acceleration Model for the Particle Contact Forces Induced by an Interstitial Fluid in Dense Particle/Fluid Flows
The development of the multi-phase flow algorithm MIPSA (Multi-InterPhase Slip-Algorithm) within a two-dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code called CASCADE is summarized with its application to the modeling of lean phase circulating fluidized beds
Jet Hydrodynamics Around Fluidized Bed Spargers
In this publication, typical commercial stripper operating problems are pointed out, and methods to diagnose the problems are identified.
Electrical Capacitance Volume Tomography
This paper documents the development of electrical capacitance volume tomography.
Drag Force of Intermediate Reynolds Number Flow Past Mono- and Bidisperse Arrays of Spheres
Extensive lattice-Boltzmann simulations were performed to obtain the drag force for random arrays of monodisperse and bidisperse spheres.
