Hydrodynamic Scale-Up of Circulating Fluidized Beds

ABSTRACT:
A general procedure that can be used to scale up circulating fluidized beds is
presented. It consists of developing a mathematical model in conjunction with
measuring 1) the radial dispersion coefficient (Dr) using gas tracers, 2) the radial
solids velocity profile using a Pitot tube and 3) the radial distribution of solids density
(1 - ε) using an optical probe. If the resulting information is obtained in a riser 200
mm or greater in diameter, it can be used in conjunction with the mathematical
model for scale-up.
