3D full-loop simulation and experimental verification of gas-solid flow hydrodynamics in a dense circulating fluidized bed

- The two-fluid model, kinetic theory of granular flow and EMMS method were coupled.
- A 3D full-loop simulation for hydrodynamics of a cold bench-scale dense CFB was performed.
- Compared with Wen-Yu model, this method better predicted axial solids distribution in the riser.
