10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
Industrial scale bubbling fluidized bed simulations were carried out within the Kinetic Theory of Granular Flows (KTGF). The KTGF was applied within two different modelling frameworks, the traditional Two Fluid Model (TFM) and a new approach in the form of the Dense Discrete Phase Model (DDPM), in order to identify any differences in performance. Only the DDPM was able to attain fully grid independent results for industrial scale 2D simulations. In fact, the performance was sufficiently good to enable the completion of reasonably affordable full 3D simulations. These simulations revealed some differences between 2D and 3D, but the global system …

Comparison Of Entrainment Rate In Acrylonitrile Reactors Using Plant Data And Cfd Simulations, S. Moffatt, S. Ramchandran, P. Zhao, K. Williams
10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
Accurate entrainment rates are important in fluidized bed reactors for several reasons, including determination of cyclone loadings and efficiencies, sizing of diplegs, and inputs to population balance models. Entrainment correlations exist in the literature and from other sources to predict entrainment rates from fluidized beds, but they can vary by orders of magnitude. In addition, many correlations do not take into account effects of internals which are present in many types of industrial reactors. A study was undertaken to better understand entrainment rates from Sohiotype acrylonitrile fluidized bed reactors containing catalyst classified as a Geldart type A powder. As part …

Critical Evaluation Of Euler-Euler And Euler-Lagrangian Modelling Strategies In A 2-D Gas Fluidized Bed, F. Hernández-Jiménez, J. R. Third, A. Acosta-Iborra, C. R, Müller
10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
Two-phase granular systems are commonly encountered in industry, and fluidized beds are particularly important due to their excellent heat and mass transfer characteristics. Here, we critically evaluate the differences between two modelling strategies, Euler-Euler and Euler-Lagrangian models. Euler-Euler simulations were performed using MFIX and an in-house code was used for Euler-Lagrangian simulations. A 2D bed of width, height and transverse thickness of respectively, 0.2 m, 0.5 m and 0.01 m, served as a test case. The settled bed height was H0 = 0.2 m. Particles of density ρ = 1000 kg/m³ and diameter dp = 1.2 mm were fluidized with …

Particle-Fluid Flow Simulations Of An Fcc Regenerator, Sam Clark
10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
A particle-fluid flow simulation of a commercial-scale fluidized catalytic cracking unit has been conducted. The simulation was full-scale, three-dimensional, and with complex internal geometries. The focus of the computational model was to predict wear on internal structures. The geometry of the particle feed pipe was found to cause asymmetric flow of high-speed gas which led to significant wear.

This paper discusses the influence of fines on the size of bubbles moving through a 23 cm ID fluidized bed of Geldart A particles imaged with an X-ray Tomographic Scanner. In earlier work [1], the bubble distribution in a fluidized bed of Geldart B particles was shown. The current study using Geldart A particles is more challenging to the reconstruction algorithm, since there are more bubbles, and they are smaller in size. We study the influence of adding fines (i.e. particles <= 45 micron) to the system. When adding a mass fraction of fines of 24%, we find a decrease of the average bubble of 40% of the size for the original powder, in line with earlier results from pressure probes and optical probes [2]. We find that the entire distribution of the bubble sizes shifts to smaller values.

A partitioned fluidized bed gasifier has been developed for improving coal gasification performance. The basic concept is to divide a fluidized bed into two parts, a gasifier and a combustor, by a partition. Char is burnt in the combustor and generated heat is supplied to the gasifier by solid mixing. Therefore, solid mixing should be maximized whereas gas mixing between syngas and the combusted gas should be minimized. In this study, gas and solid mixing behaviors were verified in cold model acrylic beds. For monitoring solid mixing behavior, transient temperature trends in the beds were analyzed. A heat source and …

10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
The syngas-to-DME reaction is highly exothermic, and the catalyst temperature window is very narrow. The fluidized-bed reactor is, therefore, an ideal choice to carry out these reactions. RTI is developing a circulating fluidized bed design for DME synthesis. This paper discusses a two-phase CFD model and optimization of the solids circulation rate.

Numerical studies of 3D cylindrical fluidized bed by means of combined computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and discrete element method (DEM) were carried out. For motion of particles, Newton's second law and 3D compressible Navier-Stokes equations in generalized curvilinear coordinates in its conservative form were used. Navier-Stokes equations were solved with high order compact finite difference scheme by fully implicit flux decomposition method. Non-reflecting boundary conditions (NRBC) were used for the outflow boundary. The convergence of this method, especially at high Reynolds number, is significantly better than the SIMPLE method.

Description Of Pressure Fluctuations In A Circulating Fluidized Bed By Statistical Analysis, Adam Luckos, Roelof Coetzer, Andre Mostert
10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
In this paper we evaluate different methods for statistically analyzing the variability in pressure fluctuations measured at three locations in an 80-mm-ID, 5-m-tall CFB model operated with natural rutile particles and air at ambient conditions. The methods evaluated are the Shannon entropy, Fischer information matrix together with kernel density estimation, and an estimation of the magnitude of the pressure amplitudes. The accuracy of the different methods is estimated by the bootstrap method. We illustrate how informative statistics from these methods can be used to quantify the effect of the process variables on fluidization at different bed locations. Depending on the …

To judge qualitatively the effect of biomass properties on its fluidizability and mixing tendency with sand particles at low fluidization velocities, local pressure gradients in the top and bottom of the bed were compared for all investigated systems. It was found that changing the mass fraction and the size of biomass impacted the onset of bubbling and the size of bubbles across the bed, which, in turn, affected the mixing/segregation of the bed content.

10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
This paper revisits and critically examines a number of methods used for analysis of in-bed pressure signals recorded in gas-solid fluidized beds. The goal is to obtain information on the time scales of dominant phenomena present in the pressure time series of four fluidization regimes. It is demonstrated that the average cycle time represents an effective alternative to spectral analysis. In addition, we give evidence that the average cycle time yields equivalent information as some of the advanced methods of non-linear analysis (e.g. the Kolmogorov entropy). Finally, by using wavelets and wavelet packets, we show how to obtain an accurate …

Dynamic Characteristics Of Bubbling And Turbulent Fluidization Using Hurst Analysis Technique, H. Azizpour, Navid Mostoufi, Reza Zarghami, Rahmat Sotudeh-Gharebagh
10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
A non-intrusive vibration monitoring technique was used to study the flow behavior in a fluidized bed. This technique has several advantages compared to other techniques, such as pressure probes and optical fiber probes which may influence the measurement because they are intrusive. Experiments were conducted in a 15 cm diameter by 2 m tall fluidized bed using 470 micron sand particles. Auto correlation functions, mutual information function and Hurst exponent analyses were used to analyze the fluidized bed hydrodynamics near the transition point from bubbling to turbulent fluidization regime. These methods were able to detect the regime transition point using …

10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
Experimental studies using electrical capacitance volume tomography (ECVT) are conducted to examine gas-solid flows in a riser and a bend of a 0.05 m (2 in) ID gas-solid circulating fluidized bed (CFB) system. The quantitative measurements using ECVT are made that illustrate a three-dimensional symmetric core-annulus structure in the riser and a non-centro-symmetric core-annulus structure in the bend. Results on the volume solids holdup distributions in the riser and in the bend at various operating conditions are also obtained.

Sulfur Uptake By Limestone-Based Sorbent Particles In Cfbc: The Influence Of Attrition/Fragmentation On Sorbent Inventory And Particle Size Distribution, Fabio Montagnaro, Piero Salatino, Fabrizio Scala, Massimo Urciuolo
10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
This paper presents a population balance model aiming at the prediction of sorbent inventory and particle size distribution establishing at steady state in the bed of an air-blown CFBC fuelled with a sulphur-bearing solid fuel. The core of the model is represented by population balance equations on sorbent particles which embody terms expressing the extent/rate of sorbent attrition/fragmentation. The effect of the progress of sulphation on attrition and fragmentation is taken into account by selection of appropriate constitutive equations. Model results are presented and discussed with the aim of clarifying the influence of particle attrition/fragmentation on sorbent inventory and particle …
