description The graphite particle dispersion characteristics with irregular shapes of dense gas-solid turbulent flow in downer reactor is numerically investigated using an improved kinetic friction stress model and a adopted drag coefficient describing momentum transfer between gas and non-spherical particles. Hydrodynamic predictions are in better line with experimental results. Redistributions of Reynolds normal and shear stresses with strongly anisotropic dispersions are captured. Comparisons to glass bead, ultralight particles elongate the second acceleration length, gather the concentration peaks at near wall region, and weak the maximum dense ring. Maximum kinetic energy at fully development region is approximately 1.2 times larger than that of second acceleration region. Lower particle sphericities are contribution to the enhancement of particle velocity, particle concentration, particle shear stress, particle collision frequency, and granular temperature, except for the reduction of turbulent kinetic energy. The negative amplitudes of shear stresses at fully development regions are approximately 4.0 times larger than those of second acceleration regions.
