Solid_Gas_Porous _Media_Reaction
 

Hi, I Am new user to Fluent. I am using FLUENT 19.2 to simulate a packed bed reactor of simple rectangular cross section. Solid inside the reactor (CaO) is porous and gas (Steam) enter the reactor from bottom. Product of the reaction is calcium hydroxide(which is also solid). The reaction is exothermic and the heat generated is transferred to fluid (HTF) flowing outside along the walls of the bed.

I need to know if it is possible to simulate this reaction using Ansys Fluent. If yes then which models/procedure should be used. Is there any tutorial available for this kind of reaction in fluent?
Thanks:):o
