## Abstract A steady gas convection model of heat transfer to a horizontal cylinder immersed in a large particle gas fluidized bed has been developed. The model is based upon the hypothesis that the large particles will be isothermal and includes the effect of radiation as well as interstitial turb

β¦ Synopsis
A physically based model is proposed for heat transfer to immersed surfaces in large particle fluidized beds. ' Large' particlesare distinguished as those with thermal time constants substantially greater than their residencetime at a heat tran sfersurface. At typical fluidized bed combustor operating conditions, particles 1mm orlarger are 'large'. Conduction through the gasnear points ofsolidcontact and convection by the interstitial gas flowboth contribute to heat transfer during emulsion (or dense phase)contact. As particle sizeincreases the heat transfer by gas convection provides a greater share of the heat transfer. It isshown that the gas convectivecomponent in fluidizedbed heat transfer is not simply related to overall gas convectionin a packed or quiescently fluidized bed, The model is shown to provide good agreement with data from several sources.

the primary combustion zone were studied. NO, values ~200 mg/m' were achieved by air grading with NH3 addition, fuel grading with CH4, by fuel separation grading with pyrolysis gas won from the coal at low air ratios and long retention times.
## Abstract Fluidized beds are particularly favored as chemical reactors because of their ability to exchange heat through immersed heatβexchange surfaces. However, little is known about how the heatβexchange process works on a singleβparticle level. The most commonly applied theory of fluidized be
