Bagasse, a by-product of sugar cane processing and an important potential energy resource, could be used as a fuel in fluidized bed combustors for energy generation. Bagasse can not be fluidized alone because of its nature, which has many fibrous, low density and high moisture content. These propert

β¦ Synopsis
This paper presents an application of "chaos" or "'deterministic chaos" analysis to the performance of a gas-solid fluidized bed. From the point of view of the still developing field of chaos the significance of this analysis is the constancy of the correlation dimension and the Lyapunov exponent over a range of operating conditions. From the point of view of fluidized bed theory these quantitative numbers provide a method of characterizing performance. In addition, in the latter case, the presence of the chaotic attractor indicates several general properties of this dynamical system.

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 hydro
## Abstract Time series of differential pressure fluctuation at various axial and radial positions were obtained at various positions of a spouted bed of 0.12 m ID for operating conditions under different flow regimes, and were analysed to give correlation dimension and Kolmogorov entropy. It has b
