Vibro-assisted fluidization of cohesive micro-silica has been studied by means of X-ray imaging, pressure drop measurements, and off-line determination of the agglomerate size. Pressure drop and bed height development could be explained by observable phenomena taking place in ...
Fluidization behavior of stirred gas–solid fluidized beds
A combined X-ray and CFD–DEM–IBM study
Evaluation of the hydrodynamics of opaque multi-phase flows remains a challenging task, with implications for various industrial processes such as chemical processing, pharmaceutical, and mineral processing. Understanding how design and operational variables affect the complex ...
Horizontal stirred bed reactors are widely used in the commercial manufacturing of polypropylene. However, a comprehensive understanding of the particle dynamics in horizontal stirred bed reactors remains elusive, primarily due to the lack of detailed experimental data. In thi ...
