Conventional design of circulating fluidized beds requires the knowledge of dispersion and mass transfer coefficients, expressed in dimensionless forms as Sherwood numbers. However, these are known to vary by five or more orders of magnitude. Furthermore, the Sherwood numbers for fine particles reported in the literature are several orders of magnitude lower than the Sherwood number of two for diffusion to a single particle. We have shown that by replacing the particle diameter in the conventional Sherwood number with cluster or bubble diameter, the modified Sherwood number is again of the order of two.We have also shown that the kinetic theory based computational fluid dynamics codes correctly compute the dispersion and mass transfer coefficients. Hence, the kinetic theory based computational fluid dynamics codes can be used for fluidized bed reactor design without any such inputs.
Conventional design of circulating fluidized beds requires the knowledge of dispersion and mass transfer coefficients, expressed in dimensionless forms as Sherwood numbers. We have shown that the kinetic theory based computational fluid dynamics codes correctly compute the dispersion and mass transfer coefficients, thus, eliminating the need to have these properties as inputs.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
