Simulation of an Internally Circulating Fluidized Bed Using a Multiphase Particle-in-Cell Method Author Links Open Overlay Panel
This paper demonstrates that Barracuda Virtual Reactor’s MP-PIC method is a reliable tool for modelling bubbling fluidized bed behavior of non-cohesive particles.
Experimental and Theoretical Study of Minimum Fluidization Velocity and Void Fraction of a Limestone Based CO2 Sorbent
Multiphase flow simulations created using Barracuda Virtual Reactor are used to compare with experimental data for determining minimum fluidization velocity for four different sizes of particles.
Avoid Fluidization Pitfalls
Fluidized beds are susceptible to such problems as bed slugging, loss of fines, and gas bypassing. This article explains how to avoid these pitfalls.
Constitutive Equation for Heat Transfer Caused by Mass Transfer
This paper presents a constitutive equation for the thermal heat transfer associated by mass transfer, applicable to both Eulerian–Eulerian and Eulerian–Lagrangian multiphase computational fluid dynamic models.
Introduction to Fluidization
Fluidized beds offer excellent heat transfer, and have the unique ability to move a wide range of solid particles in a fluid-like fashion.
Experimental and CPFD Numerical Study on Hopper Discharge
This study by researchers from the Shanghai Engineering Research Center of Coal Gasification investigated the applicability of the CPFD) numerical scheme for simulating flows in a 3-D hopper.
CPFD Numerical Study of Impact Dryer Performance
Bigda, from the Institute for Chemical Processing of Coal (IChPW), Poland, presents CPFD numerical studies of the hydrodynamics of gas-solid flow and the drying process using Barracuda Virtual Reactor.
CPFD Modeling of Industrial-Scale Dry Flue Gas Desulfurization Systems
In this paper a CPFD model for dry flue gas desulfurization (DFGD) systems was developed, validated against lab-scale data, and applied to an industrial-scale unit.
