About this document

ECVT vs. CPFD Barracuda Models by Dawei Wang is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Four computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models of a fluidized bed distributor were compared to experimental data from electrical capacitance volume tomography (ECVT) and pressure transducers. The plenum model best matched the experimental results for time-averaged solid fraction and dynamics, though it was the slowest at 1 second per day. The jets model also reasonably matched the data and was faster at 30 seconds per day. The uniform distribution model performed poorly. Overall, the study found the plenum
