Pressure drop characteristics of adjustable slotted distributor in fluidized bed

[EN] In this paper, a fluidized bed with a adjustable slotted gas distributor was used to study fluidization in a 230 mm×200 mm rectangular fluidized bed by adjusting the spacing between the two slotted gas distributors. The pressure drop of the distributor at different inlet gas velocities was obtained and the change law between pressure drop and distance between distributors was summarized. This study provides a theoretical basis for the application of adjustable slotted gas distributor fluidized bed.The authors acknowledge Projects supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant No. 31571906 & No.21506163).Tong, Z.; Chaoran, L.; Qing, X.; Zhanyong, L.; W., J.
