The effect of geometric configurations on flow hydrodynamics, heat transfer, and residence
time distribution (RTD) in a pilot-scale biomass pyrolysis vapor phase upgrading (VPU) …

Based on the coal self-preheating combustion technology, this research proposed a novel
internal fluidized bed combustor (IFBC) with an internal separator for stable preheating of …

A Eulerian–Lagrangian method is implemented to simulate turbulent two-phase gas–solid
riser flow, using a mean-field/probability density function (PDF) method. The mean-field …

Computational Fluid Dynamics is used to evaluate the use of a rotating fluidized bed in a
static geometry for the catalytic cracking of gas oil. A Eulerian–Eulerian flow model is used in …

For nearly a century, fluidized beds have been the backbone of the processing industries.
However, the complex hydrodynamic behavior aggravated, by the diversified solids …
