  1. 1. Fluid Dynamics of the Bottom Bed of Circulating Fluidized Bed Boilers

    Author : Anders Svensson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fluidized beds; circulating fluidized bed boilers; fluctuations; fluidization regimes; bottom bed; bed porosity; fluid dynamics; bubbling beds; circulating fluidized beds; non-slugging; bed expansion; particle concentration;

    Abstract : The fluid dynamic conditions in the furnace of a fluidized bed boiler influence the combustion and the production of harmful emissions. A substantial amount of the bed material in a circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boiler is present as a dense bubbling bottom bed. READ MORE

  2. 2. SOLIDS MIXING IN BUBBLING FLUIDIZED BEDS

    Author : Erik Sette; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fluid-dynamic scaling; Solids mixing; lateral dispersion; solids cross-flow;

    Abstract : For solid fuels, thermochemical conversion processes such as combustion and gasification are especially suitable to be carried out in fluidized bed units because of the relatively high mixing rates, fuel flexibility and the possibility to use active bed material to enhance process efficiency. Mixing of fuel is important to ensure complete conversion and reduced emissions of unburnt material. READ MORE

  3. 3. Heat and Mass Transfer to a Single Particle in Fluidized Bed

    Author : Gennadij I. Palconok; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mass transfer; turbulence; circulating fluidized beds; active particle; bubbling; heat; combustion; devolatilization;

    Abstract : Heat and mass transfer to/from a single active particle in bubbling and circulating fluidized beds have been studied with application to fluidized bed combustion. A method of calculation of the heat and mass transfer coefficients in a bubbling fluidized bed (BFB) has been developed. READ MORE

  4. 4. A Numerical Study of the Fluid Dynamics of Bubbling Fluidized Beds

    Author : Hans Enwald; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; validation; two-phase solver; multiblock; statistical bubble parameters; parallelization; bed expansion ratio; bubbling fluidized bed; two-fluid model;

    Abstract : The two-fluid model was evaluated as a tool for predicting local flow behaviour in bubbling fluidized beds. A review is given of the two-fluid model approach for simulation of the flow in bubbling fluidized beds. READ MORE

  5. 5. Lateral mixing of solids in bubbling fluidized beds – experimental quantification

    Author : Erik Sette; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; solids cross-flow; lateral dispersion; Solids mixing; fluid-dynamic scaling;

    Abstract : For solid fuels, thermochemical conversion processes such as combustion and gasification are especially suitable to be carried out in fluidized bed units because of the relatively high mixing rates, fuel flexibility and the possibility to use active bed material to enhance process efficiency. Fuels such as biomass and waste, which are commonly used in fluidized beds, are characterized by volatile contents much higher than what is found in fossil fuels such as coal. READ MORE
