Optimizing Design and Operational Parameters for Enhanced Mixing and Hydrodynamics in Bubbling Fluidized Bed Gasifiers: An Experimental and CFD-Based Approach

Optimizing Design and Operational Parameters for Enhanced Mixing and Hydrodynamics in Bubbling Fluidized Bed Gasifiers: An Experimental and CFD-Based Approach

An experimental investigation of hydrodynamics of gas-solid flow is carried out by engaging different designs of air distributor plates. An analysis of three different plates, i.e., perforated, 45° slotted and novel hybrid plate, revealed the difference in pressure drop and minimum fluidization velo...
