Modeling of Gas-Solid Flow in a CFB Riser Based on Computational Particle Fluid Dynamics
Researchers from China University of Petroleum use CPFD modeling to create a three-dimensional model for gas-solid flow in a circulating fluidized bed (CFB).

Modeling Coke Distribution above the Freeboard of a FLUID COKING Reactor
In a FLUID COKING unit, reactor cyclone fouling by coke deposits can set the run length of the unit. It was found that the CFD model could quantitatively predict coke distributions in the freeboard region of a FLUID COKING reactor experimental rig, while providing insight into the flow dynamics.
