In this work, we assess the internal dynamics of particles in liquid-solid fluidized beds using an unresolved CFD-DEM model. We use the Nearest Neighbors Method (NNM) and the mixing index based on the principal component analysis proposed…
Fluidized beds are suspensions of grains by ascending fluids in tubes, and are commonly used in industry given their high rates of mass and heat transfers between the solids and fluid. Although usually employed in large scales (tube…
This paper investigates experimentally and numerically the dynamics of solid particles during the layer inversion of binary solid-liquid fluidized beds in narrow tubes. Layer inversion can happen in solid classifiers and biological…
We use three-dimensional particle dynamics simulations, coupled with volume-averaged gas phase hydrodynamics, to study vertically vibrated gas-fluidized beds of fine, cohesive powders. The volume-averaged interstitial gas flow is restricted…
Besides their huge technological importance, fluidized beds have attracted a large amount of research because they are perfect playgrounds to investigate highly dynamic particulate flows. Their over-all behavior is determined by…
A new three-dimensional (3D) multiphase computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model for adsorption physics in packed beds of spherical beads is developed and validated. The model is constituted at a macroscopic scale that integrates new…
The flow patterns created by a coherent horizontal liquid jet impinging on a vertical wall atmoderate flow rates (jet flowrates 0.5-4.0 L min-1, jet velocities 2.6-21 m s-1) are studied withwater on glass, polypropylene and…
The present paper presents an experimental and numerical investigation of the dispersion of the gaseous jet flow and co-flow for the simple unit cell (SUC) and body centered cubic (BCC) configuration of particles in packed beds. The…
This paper presents an experimental and numerical investigation of solid-liquid fluidized beds consisting of bonded spheres in very narrow tubes, i.e., when the ratio between the tube and grain diameters is small. In narrow beds, high…
Micro fluidized beds are basically suspensions of solid particles by an ascending fluid in a mm-scale tube, with applications in chemical and pharmaceutical processes involving powders. Although in many applications beds are polydisperse,…
Fluidization of solid particles by an ascending fluid is frequent in industry because of the high rates of mass and heat transfers achieved. However, in some cases blockages occur and hinder the correct functioning of the fluidized bed. In…
Periodic fluidization of solids in a gas medium can generate structured bubbling patterns. This phenomenon has been successfully reproduced in fluidized bed systems called pulsed-fluidized beds, known for their efficient mixing and…
This fluid dynamics video was submitted to the Gallery of Fluid Motion for the 2009 APS Division of Fluid Dynamics Meeting in Minneapolis, Minnesota. In this video we show some results from a simple experiment where air was injected by a…
This study presents an experimental investigation of helium jet in crossflow of air, with an objective to understand the influence of acoustic forcing on jet behavior and mixing. Unforced and sinusoidally forced jets are studied. High speed…
The settling of cohesive sediment is ubiquitous in aquatic environments. In the settling process, the silt particles show behaviors that are different from non-cohesive particles due to the influence of inter-particle cohesive force. While…
We study experimentally and theoretically mixing at the external boundary of a submerged turbulent jet. In the experimental study we use Particle Image Velocimetry and an Image Processing Technique based on the analysis of the intensity of…
Granular flow dynamics on a vertically vibrated pile is studied by means of both laboratory experiments and numerical simulations. As already revealed, the depth-averaged velocity of a fully-fluidized granular pile under strong vibration,…
The present study focuses on the gas flow through an experiment-scale modular packed bed reactor consisting of square bars, arranged in layers. Each layer is rotated by $30^\circ$ resulting in a complex shape of the void spaces between the…
We present an analysis of the kinematics and physical properties of the Class I driven jet HH46-47 based on IR medium and low resolution spectroscopy obtained with ISAAC on VLT. Our aim is to study the gas physics as a function of the…
Experiments and numerical simulations were conducted to investigate the dispersion of turbulent jets issuing from realistic pipe geometries. The effect of jet densities and Reynolds numbers on vertical buoyant jets were investigated, as…
