## Abstract Recent advances in dense, multiphase, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) have allowed accurate simulation of the gas and particle motion in bubbling and circulating fluidized beds. Since fluidizedโbed reactors are used for many chemical processes, a simulation must also be able to accur

The hydrodynamics have been studied in a cold, freely bubbling, pressurized fluidized bed. The bed has a cross-section of 0.2 m;0.3 m and was operated at pressures between 0.1 and 1.6 MPa and at excess gas velocities of 0.2 and 0.6 m/s. The bed material was silica sand with a mean particle diameter
A mesh refinement study and validation of two-fluid model closures were carried out for a bubbling fluidized bed application. The mesh refinement study indicates that a higher degree of mesh refinement is required for atmospheric than for pressurized fluidization. Statistical bubble parameters (bubb
A~traet--Tbe density and flux of particles in the freeboard of a freely bubbling fluidized bed is a function of the size, aspect ratio and frequency of bubbles erupting at the surface of the dense bed. To predict the velocity and amount of material thrown into the freeboard, a previous model for the
