However, despite the abundance of review papers on hydrodynamics, there is no summary paper on gas–solid contact efficiency to date, especially on high density circulating fluidized beds(CFBs). This paper gives an introduction to, and a review of the measurement of contact efficiency in circulating fluidized bed riser. Firstly, the popular testing method of contact efficiency including the method of heating transfer experiment and hot model reaction are discussed, then previous published papers are reviewed based on the discussed methods. Some key results of the experimental work are described and discussed. Gas–solid contact efficiency is affected by the operating conditions as well as the particle size distribution. The result of the contact efficiency shows that the CFB riser is far away from an ideal plug flow reactor due to the characteristics of hydrodynamics in the riser. Lacunae in the available literature have been delineated and recommendations have been made for further work.展开更多

Degradation of the surface layers of wood was caused by chemical reactions of the basic substances of wood mass with compounds contained in antifire coatings. Fire retardants containing corrosive substances were often and repeatedly used in the Czech Republic on many wooden building constructions. This process of chemical corrosion is in practise called as ＂surface defibering of wood＂. This contribution presents standard and special experimental methods used for measuring the selected mechanical characteristics （compression strength, tension strength, bending strength, hardness and impact resistance） in the damaged surface layer of wooden construction elements. The material for experimental measuring was a construction element removed from a historical roof （ca 150 years old）. Mechanical characteristics of the surface layer of the defibered element were compared with the values measured in the deeper subsurface layer of non-damaged wood. The results of the experiments proved loss of cohesive strength and decrease of mechanical characteristics of wood only in a thin surface layer.展开更多

Observations from experimental data clearly show that the acceleration curves are characterized by a double-peak structure. The first agitated peak can be attributed to a shock process where sand responds elastically, and the valley bottom in the double-peak structure is related to a limited plastic load when a fully plastic region is formed in the sand, while the second agitated peak corresponds to a the occurrence of the maximum of viscous force in a homogeneous developed bulk flow. We use slip line theory (SL) developed in plastic mechanics to capture the value at the valley bottom, adopt the double shearing theory (DS), together with a Local Rheological Constitutive Law (LRCL) suggested in this paper, to capture the drag force generated in a homogeneous bulk flow. Good agreements in the comparisons between numerical and experimental results support the characteristic resistance by the cylinder to predict granular states.展开更多
