A review of gas–solid dispersion and mass transfer coefficient correlations in circulating fluidized beds

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a summary of the work in these areas as found in the literature dating back to 1949 and provide a critical review to guide the selection of the best correlation(s) in circulating fluidized bed reactors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Numerical investigation of gas mixing in gas-solid fluidized beds

TL;DR: In this paper, a parametric study was conducted to investigate the influence of various parameters on the gas mixing, and the specularity coefficient for the partial-slip solid-phase wall boundary condition had the most significant effect on gas mixing.

Computation of gas and solid dispersion coefficients in turbulent risers and bubbling beds

TL;DR: In this article, two types of hydrodynamics models that compute turbulent and bubbling behavior were used to estimate radial and axial gas and solid dispersion coefficients, respectively.

A Three-Dimensional Model Frame for Modelling Combustion and Gasification in Circulating Fluidized Bed Furnaces

TL;DR: In this article, a three-dimensional semi-empirical steady state model for modeling combustion and gasification in a large-scale circulating fluidized bed furnace is presented, where the model structure and the main features together with a sample calculation are described.

Gas mixing in circulating fluidised-bed risers

TL;DR: In this paper, the main focus was on the radial spread of tracer gas in the core region of the transport zone under different operating conditions, and the results showed that the horizontal gas-mixing rate is quantified by a dispersion coefficient which is above 0.01m 2 /s in the boiler and around 0.005m 2/s in a cold unit.

A simplex method for function minimization

TL;DR: A method is described for the minimization of a function of n variables, which depends on the comparison of function values at the (n 41) vertices of a general simplex, followed by the replacement of the vertex with the highest value by another point.
