## Abstract Although axial liquid dispersion has been studied extensively in particulate fluidized beds, no data has been reported previously in a liquidβsolid circulating fluidized bed (LSCFb). In this work, the axial liquid dispersions at various radial positions were measured in an LSCFB of 76 m

β¦ Synopsis
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.

The solids mixing in a riser with a height of 10 m and 0.186 m inner diameter was investigated by using pneumatic phosphor tracer technique. Considering the shielding effect of the bed material on the light emitted from the phosphor tracer particle, a modified method for the phosphor tracer measurem
