Comparison of Different Fuel Sources for Cement Calciners
This video shows Barracuda Virtual Reactor simulation results for the transient, multiphase, gas-particle dynamics inside a vortexing circulating fluidized bed (VCFB).
Application Model: Circulating Fluidized Bed Combustor
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.
