In this paper, researchers from Inaeris and CPFD Software validated results from Barracuda Virtual Reactor simulations using cold-flow experiments of Catalytic Fast Pyrolysis (CFP) fluidized beds.
In this work by Liu, Cattolica, and Seiser from UCSD, a three-dimensional model was established to simulate the hydrodynamics of a dual fluidized-bed gasification system.
Proper selection of the drag model can have a significant effect on the results from Barracuda Virtual Reactor simulations. As part of our continuing study of drag models, CPFD Software,…
In this paper, results from a CFD study of an FCC regenerator are used to recommend hardware and operational modifications, which are subsequently modeled using CFD to quantify their benefits.
