Numerical Simulation of Liquid-Solid Circulating Fluidized Beds
… extensive attraction in the extraction process of functional proteins from industrial broth. A typical LSCFB is comprised of a riser, a downcomer, a liquid-solid separator, a top solids-return pipe and a bottom solids-return pipe. In light of the literature review conducted in this research, a …

PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS AND THE EFFECTS OF KEY PARAMETERS IN SOLID PARTICLE BEDS
Fluid-solid particle beds have a broad range of industrial applications as packed and fluidized beds. The particle-particle collision, particle-wall interaction, and virtual mass force which initiates from particle motion influencing neighboring particles make it very difficult to analyze the …

Numerical simulation of fluid flow, proppant transport and fracture propagation in hydraulic fractures for unconventional reservoirs.
The distribution of proppant injected in hydraulic fractures significantly affects fracture-conductivity and well-performance. The proppant transport and suspension in thin fracturing fluid used in unconventional reservoirs are considerably different from those of fracturing fluids in conventional …

Multiphysics algorithms for the simulation of geological materials under extreme conditions: the evolution and transport of ablated material
One of the biggest challenges to deep geothermal is the ability to drill sufficiently deep into very hot bedrock. The state of the art in conventional, mechanical drilling falls short at this task due to severe wearing effects. Millimetre wave (MMW) drilling is a non-contact technology that uses …

Development of CFD models applied to fluidized beds for waste gasification
Le but de ce projet est de développer un modèle CFD fiable pour étudier la dynamique des fluides d'un lit fluidisé en régime bullant pendant la gazéification de combustibles solides de récupération (CSR) triés à partir de déchets solides municipaux (DSM). La gazéification est un processus …
