CPFD simulations of an industrial-sized dual fluidized bed steam gasification system of biomass with 8 MW fuel input

TL;DR: In this paper, an industrial-sized dual fluidized bed (DFB) system was simulated with the commercial code CPFD Barracuda and four drag models were tested, and it was found that the EMMS drag model fits best with an error of below 20%, whereas the other drag models produced much larger errors.
