This paper deals with thermal modeling of the fluidized bed drying of wet particles to study heat and mass transfer aspects and drying thermal efficiencies. The model is then validated with the literature experimental data obtained for corn. A parametric investigation is undertaken to study the effe

Analysis of devolatilization of predried large coal particles in fluidized beds requires consideration of both the chemical kinetics of coal decomposition and transport processes. Models available either assume the devolatilization particle to be isothermal (whereas it may be shown that, in general,
With an aim to conduct performance rating and optimization of an industrial-scale fluidized bed dryer, a decision tree has been devised to aid selection of the most appropriate mathematical model. The operating fluidization regime is first identified and a theoretical criterion using a cross flow fa
Coal particles with diameters of 3-11 mm were injected into a small, hot bed of sand fluidized by nitrogen. Volatiles evolution was followed by sampling the exit gas stream and subsequent analysis by gas chromatography. Three Australian coals covering a range of volatile matter were studied and the
