Experiments on maldistribution were conducted in a 8.5 m high, 1 mΓ0.3 m cross-section circulating fluidized bed equipped with a 33 bubble-cap distributor. There exists an uneven distribution in flow rate, the bubble caps in the center region having larger flow rates than those next to the wall. Flo

Phase distribution is one of the key hydrodynamic parameters useful for the design and performance assessment of fluidized bed dryers (FBDs). It has direct influence on the drying rate, thermal efficiency, residence time distribution and degree of mixing. The quality of fluidization strongly depends
Gas-liquid-solid fluidized beds are used extensively in the refining, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, food, and environmental industries. An extensive review of gasliquid-solid fluidization has been published by Fan (1989). The performance of multiphase reactors is affected by the flo
