This application model uses Barracuda Virtual Reactor to simulate the direct reduction of iron ore in a MIDREX-style shaft furnace. The simulation tracks moving bed hydrodynamics and reduction reactions between iron oxide particles and a hydrogen–carbon monoxide gas mixture, enabling evaluation of solids conversion, gas species evolution, and furnace temperature profiles.

This application model uses Barracuda Virtual Reactor to simulate combustion inside the riser of a lab-scale CFB combustor. The simulation tracks fluid-particle interactions and chemical reactions between air and volatile species released from coal particles. This enables users to evaluate combustion performance, temperature profiles, and gas species distributions such as O₂, CO₂, NO, and SO₂ across the riser.

This post shows how to use Baffles to model structured packing in a Barracuda Virtual Reactor simulation. Due to its thin-walled geometry and intricate patterns, structured packing is rarely included…
This video is part of set of simulations for a novel, fluidised-bed-based plastic recycling system. In this simulation, particle flow through an L valve is studied.
This video, from the CFBC Application Model, shows the initial fluidization of particles in the riser as well as the distribution of coal particles in the system.
This video shows an animation of Ar bubbles rising up in an MMBCR.
