Three-phase CFD-DEM study on the hydrodynamics of a riser system with liquid injection
Riser reactors are frequently applied in the process industry for highly important catalytic processes. In this work, a computational fluid dynamics- discrete element method (CFD-DEM) for a riser with liquid injection was developed. This model treats the gas as a continuous phase whereas the liquid droplets and catalyst particles are treated as discrete elements. The presence of droplets causes particles to be wet, which is taken into account via coverage models of the particles. In addition, the liquid on the particles will change the collision behavior, which is included using an energy balance approach. This CFD-DEM study is conducted simulating a lab-scale pseudo-2D riser. Based on the comparison, the assumption of fully covered particles results in a significant increase in the solids holdup and clustering behavior of the riser which, especially at the low liquid flow rate, results in an over-prediction. The partial coverage simulations show that only half of the particles are covered, which has a major effect on the collisions.
期刊介绍:
The Chemical Engineering Journal is an international research journal that invites contributions of original and novel fundamental research. It aims to provide an international platform for presenting original fundamental research, interpretative reviews, and discussions on new developments in chemical engineering. The journal welcomes papers that describe novel theory and its practical application, as well as those that demonstrate the transfer of techniques from other disciplines. It also welcomes reports on carefully conducted experimental work that is soundly interpreted. The main focus of the journal is on original and rigorous research results that have broad significance. The Catalysis section within the Chemical Engineering Journal focuses specifically on Experimental and Theoretical studies in the fields of heterogeneous catalysis, molecular catalysis, and biocatalysis. These studies have industrial impact on various sectors such as chemicals, energy, materials, foods, healthcare, and environmental protection.
