Estimation of "inlet solid volume fraction"...?
Hi,all,
For circulating fluidized bed, we generally know that the superficial gas velocity (m/s) and solid flux(kg/m2 s). In addtion, the solid and gas densities are also known. Then, my question is: How to estimate the "solid volume fraction at the inlet"? As we know,this parameter is needed as input in E-E two-fuild simulation. Could you please give some ideas and recommend some proper estimation approach? |
Re: Estimation of "inlet solid volume fraction"...
There is a method proposed in Gidaspow's book:
Es = Ws/RO_s/(Ug/Eg-Vt) where Es-- Solid volume fraction Ws-- solid flux RO_s --- solid density Ug--- superficial gas velocity Eg --- Gas volume fraction Vt--- terminal velocity I am not sure whether it is suitable for your system. Hope this helps. Sacoer |
