    Abstract A coupled method describing gas-solid two-phase flow has been proposed to numerically study the bubble formation at a single orifice in gas-fluidized beds. Solid particles are traced with smoothed particle hydrodynamics, whereas gas phase is discretized by finite volume method. Drag force, gas pressure gradient, and volume fraction are used to couple the two methods. The effect of injection velocities, particle sizes, and particle densities on bubble growth is analyzed using the coupled method. The simulation results, obtained for two-dimensional geometries, include the shape and diameter size of a bubble as a function of time; More >
