The commonly used Gidaspow drag model was tested first. The simulation showed that the predicted minimum bubbling velocities were significantly lower than the experimental data even when an extremely fine grid size (of approximately one particle diameter) was used. The modified Gibilaro drag model was therefore tested next. The predicted minimum bubbling velocity and bed voidage were in reasonable agreement with the experimental data available in literature. The experimentally observed regime transition phenomena from bubbling to slugging were also reproduced successfully in the simulations. Parametric studies indicated that the solid-wall boundary conditions had a significant impact on the predicted gas and solid flow behavior.展开更多

The reactor is op- erated as a differential reactor to ensure a constant gas concentration and temperature within the reactor volume. In order to understand the dynamic process of the reduction reaction in micro-fluidized bed, a series of kinetic experi- ments were designed. In the micro fluidized bed, the use of shrinking core model describes the dynamic behavior of reduction of iron ore. And the apparent activation energy is calculated in the range of 700--850 ~C while the initial atmosphere is 100% content of CO.展开更多

Bed columns with inner diameters of 0.8, 1.45, and 2.3 mm were fabricated based on capillaries. Five parti- cle sizes in a range of 22-58 t^m were investigated. Bed-expansion curves were plotted using visually recorded bed-expansion heights. The bed expansion and initial fluidization behavior were compared with predictions for conventional-scale beds, Evident differences are reflected in lower expansion ratios and higher minimum fluidization velocities for micro-fluidized beds. These were attributed to the increase in the internal surface area of the particle beds and specific surface area of wall contact. The wall effect for micro-fluidized beds at higher particle/bed diameter ratios caused higher local voidage and an increase in expansion ratio. Correlations for the exponent and proportional coefficient in the Richardson-Zaki equation for micro-fluidized beds were proposed. The minimum fluidization velocities were correlated using a modification of the Ergun equation.展开更多

The space distribution of electric field and dielectrophoresis forces in different heights were also obtained. On this basis, the core component of the micro manipulation system, that is, photoconductive layer of the chip, was completed in the mate-rial selection, fabricating process and performance analysis testing. Then the voltage drop of the sus-pension and the effective voltage frequency spectrum were obtained. Finally, by combining the machine vision detection with real-time tracking system, the micro/nano bio-particles manipulation platform based on the light-induced dielectrophoreisis was established, and then the manipulations for micro/nano bio-particles, such as quick collection, transport, separation, were implemented. This provided a basis for rapid, accurate, and low-cost detection of serious diseases based on the micro-fluidic biochip and early diagnosis.展开更多
