Abstract In order to grasp the particle flow characteristics and energy consumption of industrial fluidized spouted beds, we conduct numerical simulations on the
basis of a Computational Particle Fluid Dynamics (CPFD) approach. In particular,
the traction model of Wen-Yu-Ergun is used and different inlet conditions are considered. Using a low-speed fluidizing gas, the flow state of the particles is better
and the amount of particles accumulated at the bottom of the bed wall becomes
smaller. For the same air intake, the energy loss of a circular nozzle is larger than
that of a square nozzle. More >
