Book Fluid Dynamics and Heat Transfer in Circulating Fluidized Beds

Download or read book Fluid Dynamics and Heat Transfer in Circulating Fluidized Beds written by Shihui Zhou and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new theoretical approach to the modelling of the upward flow of gas-particle suspensions is presented. In this, the proposed theory is used to predict suspension concentration, radial gas and solids velocities, axial gas and solids velocities. This thesis provides a general expression for slip velocity between gas and solids phases. The equivalence of pressure gradient with suspension concentration is demonstrated. The experimentally observed existence of core-annulus flow structure, a rapidly- rising dilute core surrounded by a slowly-falling denser annulus adjacent to the pipe walls, in vertical risers is predicted by the theory. Sodium chloride tracer impulse injection was used to measure the longitudinal solids mixing in circulating fluidized bed risers of internal diameter 0.152 and 0.305m at superficial gas velocity from 2.8 to 5.0 m/s for mean solids circulation flux from 5.0 to 80 kg/m2s. The measured solids mixing data were satisfactorily described by a simple one-dimensional dispersion model which permits residence time distribution curves to be calculated directly from a knowledge of operating conditions. The degree of longitudinal solids mixing in the riser is found to decrease with increase in riser diameter. The measurement of instantaneous local temperature fluctuation traces and mean thermal boundary layers was conducted with a special probe for various operating conditions. A mechanism, in which eddying particle cloud swarms and gas packets are pictured as the receptors of heat, and relatively steady conduction of heat and unsteady random transport of heat play the principal roles in the wall-to-suspension heat transfer, is proposed and is analyzed mathematically. Overall heat transfer coefficients were measured on 0.180 m long heat transfer section in two scale cold model circulating fluidized bed risers at several temperature differences for ... powder at superfical gas velocity from 1.96 to 5.66 m/s, and for solids circulation fluxes up to 118.54 kg/m2s. Average heat transfer coefficients increase with suspension concentration which ranged from 0 to 86.09 kg/m3, and decrease with heat transfer temperature difference, Tw - Tb, which ranged from 12 to 121.5 degrees C Heat transfer coefficients are found to increase with riser diameter.

Download or read book Circulating Fluidized Beds written by J.R. Grace and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 599 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the late 1970s there has been an explosion of industrial and academic interest in circulating fluidized beds. In part, the attention has arisen due to the environmental advantages associated with CFB (circulating . fluidized bed) combustion systems, the incorporation of riser reactors employing cir culating fluidized bed technology in petroleum refineries for fluid catalytic cracking and, to a lesser extent, the successes of CFB technology for calcina tion reactions and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. In part, it was also the case that too much attention had been devoted to bubbling fluidized beds and it was time to move on to more complex and more advantageous regime,S of operation. Since 1980 a number of CFB processes have been commercialized. There have been five successful International Circulating Fluidized Bed Confer ences beginning in 1985, the most recent taking place in Beijing in May 1996. In addition, we have witnessed a host of other papers on CFB funda mentals and applications in journals and other archival publications. There have also been several review papers and books on specific CFB topics. However, there has been no comprehensive book reviewing the field and attempting to provide an overview of both fundamentals and applications. The purpose of this book is to fill this vacuum.
