This video shows Barracuda Virtual Reactor® simulation results for the 3D, transient, chemically reacting flows in a chemical looping combustion (CLC) system.

This video, created by Beijing Hi-key Tech Co. Ltd., demonstrates Barracuda Virtual Reactor® applied to a coal powder pneumatic conveying system.

This video represents some of the early Barracuda Virtual Reactor validation efforts performed more than a decade ago. The CFD simulation results are shown on the left compared with a transparent cold-flow fluidized bed of Geldart Group B particles on the right.

This video demonstrates the new embedded post-processing capabilities in Barracuda Virtual Reactor 20, thanks to our recent partnership with Tecplot, Inc.

This video demonstrates how Barracuda Virtual Reactor enabled the optimization of a cyclone system used for a cement industry application.

This video shows the transient engagement of densely-loaded spent FCC catalyst exiting from the standpipe into a lift riser for transport into an FCC regenerator.

This animation was part of a study conducted by a North American refiner using the Barracuda Virtual Reactor to understand and correct the high levels of carbon monoxide (CO) being produced in their FCC regenerator.

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.

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.

This video shows the model of a full-scale, 3D, circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boiler using Barracuda Virtual Reactor®.
