This literature survey focuses on the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in
various aspects of the fluidized bed reactor. Although fluidized bed reactors are used in …

Macroscopic (semi-empirical) models for fluid dynamics of circulating fluidized bed (CFB)
units are presented, with emphasize on applications for conditions relevant to industrial units …

The influence of the solid-phase wall boundary condition was investigated in Eulerian–
Eulerian numerical simulations of a bubbling fluidized bed. Parametric studies of the particle …

The hydrodynamics of a freely bubbling, pseudo 2‐D fluidized bed has been investigated
experimentally for different bed aspect ratios at different superficial gas velocities by using …

Terminal rising velocity of a single bubble in stagnant water and glycerol aqueous solution
was studied by the techniques of high-speed photography and digital image analysis. The …

Bubble characteristics are very important in the design of fluidized beds because they
govern hydrodynamics and efficiency of the operation for which the bed is used. In this work …

Mechanical vibration is often applied in industrial scale fluidized bed dryers for food and
pharmaceutical powders to overcome operational problems caused by the cohesiveness of …

This work compares simulation and experimental results of the hydrodynamics of a two-
dimensional, bubbling air-fluidized bed. The simulation in this study has been conducted …

In flotation processes, bubble diameter (db), bubble velocity (vb), and turbulence are the key
factors involved in particle-bubble interactions. The collision efficiency (EC) is used as an …

Understanding the fundamentals of gas–solid fluidized beds and, in general, multiphase
flows has been a significant task since the conception of gas–solid fluidization and fluid …
