The 12th International Conference on Fluidization - New Horizons in Fluidization Engineering

Results from experiments done in a 2D turbulent fluidized bed cold model are presented. Experiments were conducted to study flow patterns, particle mixing in the bed and spreading of gas blown from one side into the bed. 2D simulations of the experiments were carried out using the Eulerian multiphase models of the Fluent and MFIX CFD softwares.

The 12th International Conference on Fluidization - New Horizons in Fluidization Engineering

A spouted bed reactor operating at high temperature has been modelled using one dimensional models based on process engineering concepts. The process of coal gasification has been selected to demonstrate the models achievements and predictions have been compared to previous spouted bed reactor experimental results.
