✦ Synopsis

An experimental

method for determining the rate of burning of a carbon sphere within a fluidized bed of sand is described. Experiments have been carried out at three different bed temperatures. Measured values were compared with theoretical values and they were found to be in reasonable agreement. The difference between the core temperature of the carbon sphere and that of the bed was found to increase with diminishing size of the sphere.

Burning rates of carbon spheres are measured in a 102 mm diameter bed fluidized in the turbulent regime. Results suggest carbon burns much faster than in a bubbling fluidized bed operating under otherwise similar conditions-excepting velocity. The enhanced burning rate is attributed to high mass tra
