This paper by Kuochen Tsai, Ernesto Rafael Fonseca, Sujatha Degaleesan, and Ed Lake from Shell shows advances in the numerical simulation of proppant transport in hydraulically stimulated fractures for oil and gas production.
Experiments involving monodisperse Geldart Group B particles were carried out in a pilot-scale riser of a circulating fluidized bed, and several combinations of superficial gas velocity, solid flux, average particle diameter, and particle material density were investigated
Gas–solids circulating fluidized bed (CFB) experiments have been carried out, with a focus on understanding the impact of polydispersity on cluster characteristics in a dilute riser.
This paper investigates the capability of the Multiphase Particle in Cell (MP-PIC) approach for modeling a bubbling fluidized bed of Geldart A particles.
Experiments with a focus on the impact of polydispersity on clustering characteristics (namely, appearance probability, duration, and frequency) of Geldart Group B particles in a circulating fluidized bed riser have been performed.
Experiments in a circulating fluidized bed (CFB) riser with Geldart Group B particles have been carried out with an emphasis on cluster characterization.
In order to create fast fluidized beds designed to maximize coal gasification yields and designed to provide an optimum syngas composition with minimum operational upsets, a comprehensive model for steam gasification is created using CPFD methods.
In this research experiments directed at understanding local mass flux behavior of Geldart Group B materials in the riser of a gas-solids circulating fluidized bed (CFB) have been carried out.
This article presents a Barracuda Virtual Reactor simulation of combusting gas and particle flow within the Duisburg 250 MW CFBC chamber.
Experiments involving a gas–solid, pilot-scale circulating fluidized bed (CFB) have been carried out, with a focus on species segregation measurements in a riser.
