Experimental study on secondary air mixing along the bed height in a circulating fluidized bed with a multitracer-gas method

A multitracer-gas method was proposed to study the secondary air(SA)mixing along the bed height in a circulating fluidized bed(CFB)using carbon monoxide(CO),oxygen(O_(2)),and carbon dioxide(CO_(2))as tracer gases.Experiments were carried out on a cold CFB test rig with a cross-section of 0.42 m×0.73 m and a height of 5.50 m.The effects of superficial velocity,SA ratio,bed inventory,and particle diameter on the SA mixing were investigated.The results indicate that there are some differences in the measurement results obtained using different tracer gases,wherein the deviation between CO and CO_(2) ranges from 42%to 66%and that between O_(2) and CO_(2) ranges from 45%to 71%in the lower part of the fluidized bed.However,these differences became less pronounced as the bed height increased.Besides,the high solid concentration and fine particle diameter in the CFB may weaken the difference.The measurement results of different tracer gases show the same trends under the variation of operating parameters.Increasing superficial velocity and SA ratio and decreasing particle diameter result in better mixing of the SA.The effect of bed inventory on SA mixing is not monotonic.

Radial mixing and segregation of granular bed bi-dispersed both in particle size and density within horizontal rotating drum

Taking simultaneous variations in both particle volume and density into account, the radial mixing and segregation of binary granular bed in a rotating drum half loaded were investigated by a 3D discrete element method. Then, based on the competition theory of condensation and percolation, radial segregation due to differences in particle volume and/or density was analyzed. The results show that if either percolation effect induced by volume difference or condensation effect induced by density difference dominates in the active layer of moving bed, separation will occur. Controlling the volume ratio or density ratio of the two types of particles can achieve an equilibrium state between percolation and condensation, and then homogenous mixture can be obtained. When the percolation balances with the condensation, the relationship between volume ratioand density ratiopresents nearly a power function. Scaling up a rotating drum will not affect the mixing degree of the granular bed so long as the volume ratio and density ratio are predefined.

Numerical simulation of local and global mixing/segregation characteristics in a gas–solid fluidized bed

Researches on solids mixing and segregation are of great significance for the operation and design of fluidized bed reactors.In this paper,the local and global mixing and segregation characteristics of binary mixtures were investigated in a gas–solid fluidized bed by computational fluid dynamics-discrete element method(CFD-DEM)coupled approach.A methodology based on solids mixing entropy was developed to quantitatively calculate the mixing degree and time of the bed.The mixing curves of global mixing entropy were acquired,and the distribution maps of local mixing entropy and mixing time were also obtained.By comparing different operating conditions,the effects of superficial gas velocity,particle density ratio and size ratio on mixing/segregation behavior were discussed.Results showed that for the partial mixing state,the fluidized bed can be divided into three parts along the bed height:complete segregation area,transition area and stable mixing area.These areas showed different mixing/segregation processes.Increasing gas velocity promoted the local and global mixing of binary mixtures.The increase in particle density ratio and size ratio enlarged the complete segregation area,reduced the mixing degree and increased the mixing time in the stable mixing area.

Mixing and Segregation Characteristics of Binary Granular Material in Tapered Fluidized Bed: A CFD Study

The particle flow pattern, mixing and granule segregation in a tapered fluidized bed have been studied along with the hydrodynamics. At first the bed of varying total mass and granule fractions is fluidized then the bed is defluidized to freeze the composition, the bed is sectioned to layers and the composition in each layer is determined by sieving. Materials used in the present study are dolomite and glass beads with different B.S.S Sizes. A series of unsteady, three fluid CFD simulations were performed using FLUENTTM 6.2. Simulation parameters viz. solution technique, grid, maximum packing fraction and operating conditions like gas velocity were investigated for relative effects on particle mixing and segregation. Good arrangement of solid volume fraction profile was obtained between the experimental results and simulation results for regular particles.

Segregation/Mixing Behavior of Binary Particles and Formation of Double-Density-Fluidized Bed

The current separator with air dense medium fluidized bed can only turn out two products at the same time with a single separating density. The double density fluidized bed means that two separating areas with different densities are formed in a fluidized cascade. In each separating area, the bed density is uniform and meets the technical requirement of coal preparation respectively. Therefore, the processed materials can be separated into three products according to density. In this paper, the fluidized behaviors of binary dense media were experimentally studied and the distribution characteristics of particle concentration and bed density in different bed structure were discussed. The segregation and mixing mechanisms of binary dense media were analyzed. It was testified that the pyramidal part designed in the bed structure played a key role in the formation of double density fluidized bed. The pyramidal part intensified the segregation of binary particles between two separating areas and strengthened the mixing in the low density area, which made for the density uniform of the area.

FUNDAMENTAL STUDIES ON THE HYDRODYNAMICS AND MIXING OF GAS AND SOLID IN A DOWNER REACTOR

The effect of flow direction on hydrodynamics and mixing in the upflow and downflowcirculating fluidized beds is discussed in details.Similar profiles of gas and solids velocities andsolids concentration are found in both risers and downers.When the flow is in the direction ofgravity(downer),the radial profiles of gas and particle velocity are more uniform than that inthe riser,the solids mixing is very small and the flow pattern approaches plug flow,while theflow is against gravity(riser),the solids backmixing significantly increase and the flow pattern isfar from plug flow.Among many of factors the flow direction has the largest influence onhydrodynamics and axial mixing of gas and solids.

钱塘江北岸古海塘堤脚加固工程中,辅助围堰施工的临时性管袋黏土混合式丁坝对工程的顺利进行、提高施工效率起着至关重要的作用,然而目前对其周围水沙运动的研究较少,且缺乏相关实测资料。考虑混合式丁坝修建的动态过程,利用无人机拍摄水流视频结合LSPIV(粒子图像测速)处理技术对丁坝修建前、中、后期周围的流场进行分析,并对丁坝附近的地形进行跟踪测量,同时对不同潮差的水流含沙量进行现场测定。结果表明,丁坝具有改变水流方向,减少水流对河岸冲刷的作用,且丁坝越长,挑流作用越明显,为围堰施工提供了较为平缓的水流条件;混合式丁坝对坝后处的促淤效果明显,且坝后地形变化与含沙量密切相关,潮差越大,水体含沙量越高,丁坝后河床淤积幅度越大,有利于提高围堰的施工效率。研究成果对之后相关物理模型和数值模拟的研究提供数据支持。

Axial gas mixing in conical spouted beds with high density particles

Conical spouted beds operating with high-density particles(ρp>2500 kg/m^(3))have recently gained attention because of their potential use as nuclear fuel coaters for next-generation nuclear reactors.In the literature,the number of axial gas mixing studies in conical and conical-cylindrical spouted beds is very limited and all axial mixing studies were carried out with relatively light particles(ρp≤2500 kg/m^(3)).Therefore,the objective of this study was to generate experimental data that can be used to explain the gas axial mixing behavior in conical spouted beds operating with both low-and high-density particles.Experiments were conducted in two(γ=30°,60°)conical spouted beds with three different types of particles:zirconia(ρp=6050 kg/m^(3)),zirconia toughened alumina(ρp=3700 kg/m^(3))and glass beads(ρp=2460 kg/m^(3)).In order to be able to compare experimental data obtained at different conditions,a 1-D convection-diffusion gas mixing model originally developed by San Joséet al.(1995)was implemented to determine the axial dispersion coefficients.The results show that the axial dispersion coefficients range between m^(2)/s and m^(2)/s,increase with superficial gas velocity and are higher than the corresponding dispersion coefficients of fixed beds,lower than the dispersion coefficients of fluidized beds and in the same range with the cylindrical spouted beds reported in the literature.The corresponding Peclet numbers were in the range of 0.6–7.8 for all operating conditions and slightly higher Peclet numbers were obtained with glass beads indicating the relative importance of gas convective transport over gas dispersion for light particles compared to heavy particles.

Effects of Airflow Field on Droplets Diameter inside the Corrugated Packing of a Rotating Packed Bed

Rotating packing bed(RPB) has a better mixing performance than traditional mixers and shows potential application in the petroleum industry. However, acquisition of information about the mixing process directly through experiments is difficult because of the compact structure and complex multiphase flow pattern in RPB. To study the mixing characteristic, Fluent, the computational fluid dynamics(CFD) software, was used to explore the effect of airflow field on droplet diameter. For conducting calculations, the gas-liquid two-phase flow inside the packing was simulated with the RNG k-ε turbulence model and the Lagrange Discrete Phase Model(DPM), respectively. The numerical calculation results showed that coalescence and breakup of droplets can take place in the gas phase flow inside the packing and can be strengthened with increased rotating speed, thereby leading to the enlargement of the average diameter.

Modeling of the Precipitation Process in a Rotating Packed Bed and Its Experimental Validation

A mixing-precipitation model based on the modified coalescence-redispersion model was presented to describe the flow,mixing,nucleation and growth in a rotating packed bed(RPB) .The model was coupled with population balance,mass balance and crystallization kinetics.It predicted well the influence of coalescence prob-ability,which represents the mixing intensity among droplets,on the particle number density,supersaturation and mean particle size of the produced precipitates.The effects of the radial thickness of packing,liquid flow rate and rotating speed on the product particle size were also investigated.The results indicate that the needed radial length of packing is short for sparingly soluble substance precipitation(about 40-50 mm in this work) ,and the mean parti-cle size of precipitates decreases with the increase of rotating speed and liquid flow rate,respectively.The validity of this model was verified by experiment on BaSO4 precipitation in RPB.
