Abstract
This study experimentally investigated the transport characteristics of flaky, fibrous and streaky biomass particles in a fluidization tube. The movement and distribution of these non-spherical biomass particles in different sections of the fluidization tube were visualized and analyzed by using a Particle Tracking Velocimetry measuring approach. The method for calculating the solidity rate distribution of particles in the fluidization tube was also developed. Furthermore, the distribution patterns of non-spherical biomass particles with three different morphologies in the near-wall region of the fluidization tube were significantly analyzed. It could be observed that the area of the non-spherical biomass particles in the near-wall region exhibited an ’M’ shape. Three empirical formulas for predicting the maximum area of non-spherical biomass particle clusters in the fluidization tube were firstly proposed. Among the three prediction formulas, the correlation coefficients are 0.7142, 0.8797, and 0.9567, respectively
期刊介绍:
Chemical engineering enables the transformation of natural resources and energy into useful products for society. It draws on and applies natural sciences, mathematics and economics, and has developed fundamental engineering science that underpins the discipline.
Chemical Engineering Science (CES) has been publishing papers on the fundamentals of chemical engineering since 1951. CES is the platform where the most significant advances in the discipline have ever since been published. Chemical Engineering Science has accompanied and sustained chemical engineering through its development into the vibrant and broad scientific discipline it is today.
