This presentation by Peter Blaser presents a case study for an FCC regenerator experiencing severe maldistribution resulting in high afterburn, intermittent catalyst losses and excessive CO and NOx emissions.
This presentation by Sam Clark discusses how numerical simulations of a PSRI cold-flow FCC stripper experiment with subway grating baffles were performed using the Virtual Reactor Simulation and compares the results with measurements from PSRI’s Research Report No.88.
This presentation by Dr. Bruce Adkins and Dr. Neeti Kapur discusses how Inaeris Technologies’ pilot-scale cold flow unit was used to calibrate the Virtual Reactor model development for both catalyst-only and catalyst-biomass co-feed operation.
This presentation by Rosemary Clark highlights the new features and capabilities of the 17.2 version of the Virtual Reactor.
This presentation by Rosemary Clark highlights the new features and capabilities of the 17.1 version of the Virtual Reactor.
This presentation by Ray Fletcher provides an overview of both stable and unstable forms of afterburn, and shows how the Barracuda Virtual Reactor is used to troubleshoot afterburn issues in FCC regenerators.
This presentation by Ray Cocco discusses validation with relevant experimental data as an important and necessary process with any modeling effort for applications with scale up.
This presentation by Peter J. O’Rourke discusses the history of the MP-PIC method which is traced from its origins in spray modeling to recent modifications that include sub-models for important particle-particle effects. MP-PIC is compared with other methodologies for simulating dense particulate two-phase flows.
This presentation by Andrew Fry discusses pilot-scale facilities at the University of Utah and the integration of Barracuda simulations with ongoing experiments.
