Hydrodynamic Behaviour of Solid Transport for a Closed Loop Circulating Fluidized Bed with Secondary Air Injection
The aim of this work was to study the mechanism of solid circulation in a Circulating Fluidized Bed pilot as a function of secondary air flow rate. A rectangular column of 7 m height equipped with a U type siphon was used for this purpose. The results obtained showed that the solid circulating phenomenon depends on different limiting steps like feeding step (dense bed), siphon circulating capacity and suspension saturation capacity.
