TL;DR: In this article, a new reactor concept for chemical-looping combustion (CLC) is proposed, based on dynamically operated packed bed reactors, and it is demonstrated that a constant, very high temperature air stream can be generated efficiently using packed bed CLC reactors to drive a downstream gas turbine.

TL;DR: Lau et al. as mentioned in this paper used algebraic closure relations to simulate large-scale gas/liquid contact apparatusses, such as bubble columns, which is essential for the optimization and further development of many bio-chemical and metallurgical processes.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of multiple spouts on the bed dynamics in a pseudo-2D triple-spout fluidized bed, employing the discrete particle model (DPM) and non-intrusive measurement techniques such as particle image velocimetry (PIV) and positron emission particle tracking (PEPT).

TL;DR: In this article, the drag, lift and torque coefficients of non-spherical particles were determined using the lattice Boltzmann method with multi-relaxation time in the Reynolds number range 0.1 to 2.1 for different incident angles ϕ.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an introduction to coupled computational fluid dynamics (CFD-DEM) modeling in process engineering systems, including heat and mass transfer and long range forces, and review the major researches in simulation of two-phase processes such as drying, coating, granulation, crystallization, chemical reactions (including combustion, gasification and pyrolysis) and mixing.
