✦ Synopsis


Abstraet--A new approach to the modelling of gross gas-solids flow through the riser in a circulating fluidized-bed system is proposed in this paper. This approach differs from the previous ones, which are found to be theoretically incorrect based on a fundamental analysis of the riser process hydrodynamics. Starting from the basic principles, the new approach tackles the modelling problem from both energy and momentum balance perspectives. It also identifies that a riser may be operating in two different flow regimes: the entrainment regime and the dragging regime. Experimental results from a compartmented dense-phase circulating fluidized bed, developed for a continuous coal combustion-gasification process, verified the existence of the two flow regimes.

Results of detailed experimental measurements of solids mass flux profiles in circulating tfuidized-bed risers of internal diameter 0.152 and 0.305 m are described. The ranges of superficial gas velocity and mean solids mass flux used were 3-5 m s-1 and 2-111 kg m ' s I, respectively, and the solids
