Barracuda Virtual Reactor® validation on FCC catalyst fluidization conducted by PSRI
This video shows Barracuda Virtual Reactor® simulations results on the left, compared with large-scale test data from Particulate Solid Research, Inc. (PSRI) on the right.
CFD for Sorbent-Based Gas Cleanup System
Gas streams from reactors such as gasifiers often have a need to ‘scrub out’ undesirable gas-phase components from the primary product gases. For a gasifier’s syngas this is always sulfur.
Supplemental Training: Single-Cell Chemistry
This training example is part of the Barracuda Virtual Reactor Supplemental Training collection. It is intended to be done independently and after completion of the Barracuda Virtual Reactor New User…

CFD Simulation in CPFD Barracuda of a Fluidized Bed Gasifier
A model of a commercial-scale fluidized bed gasifier and includes the coal gasification chemical kinetics.
Using Baffles to Model Structured Packing
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…
Using Initial Conditions from File to Start a Simulation
This post shows how to start a Barracuda Virtual Reactor simulation from an Initial Condition (IC_*) file. It is possible to do many interesting and useful things that are not…
