Summary: | A phenomenological model of axial solids mixing in a circulating fluidized bed is formulated. The model allows for main specific features of the process: ascending motion of particles in the core zone and their descending motion in the annular zone (inner circulation of solids); substantial changes of particle concentration, sizes of core and annular zones over the bed height; net circulation of solids and the effect of the bottom bed on the process. The validity of initial postulates is confirmed by comparison of calculated and experimental curves of mixing. |
