Coarse-grained computations of demixing in dense gas-fluidized beds.

چکیده
We use an "equation-free," coarse-grained computational approach to accelerate molecular dynamics-based computations of demixing (segregation) of dissimilar particles subject to an upward gas flow (gas-fluidized beds). We explore the coarse-grained dynamics of these phenomena in gently fluidized beds of solid mixtures of different densities, typically a slow process for which reasonable continuum models are currently unavailable.

Determination of Cluster Hydrodynamics in Bubbling Fluidized Beds by the EMMS Approach
The local solid flow structure of gas-solid bubbling fluidized bed was investigated to identify and characterize the particle clusters. Extensive mathematical calculations were carried out using the energy-minimization multi-scale (EMMS) approach for evaluating cluster properties including the velocity, the size and the void fraction of clusters in the dense phase of the bed. The results showed...
متن کاملEvaluation of Eulerian Two-Fluid Numerical Method for the Simulation of Heat Transfer in Fluidized Beds
Accurate modeling of fluidization and heat transfer phenomena in gas-solid fluidized beds is not solely dependent on the particular selected numerical model and involved algorithms. In fact, choosing the right model for each specific operating condition, the correct implementation of each model, and the right choice of parameters and boundary conditions, determine the accuracy of the results i...
متن کاملEffect of Bed Diameter on the Hydrodynamics of Gas-Solid Fluidized Beds
Effect of scale on the hydrodynamics of gas-solid fluidized beds was investigated in two fluidized beds of 152 mm and 78 mm in diameter. Air at room temperature was used as the fluidizing gas in the bed of sand particles. The Radioactive Particle Tracking (RPT) technique was employed to obtain the instantaneous positions of the particles at every 20 ms of the experiments. These data were u...

A computational study has been carried out to assess the influence of pressure on the flow behaviors in dense gas-fluidized beds. Therefore the discrete particle simulation approach has been employed to study the regime transitions, local two-phase flow structures and the energy dissipation distribution. The results show that high pressure reduces the incipient fluidization velocity, widens the...

Effect of interparticle force on the hydrodynamics of gas-solid fluidized beds was investigated using the combined method of computational fluid dynamics and discrete element method (CFD-DEM). The cohesive force between particles was considered to follow the van der Waals equation form. The model was validated by experimental results from literature in terms of bed voidage distribution and Eule...
