CFD Modeling of Hydrodynamics of Fluidized Bed

The objective of this project is to simulate a gas-solid fluidized by applying CFD techniques in order to investigate hydrodynamics and heat transfer phenomena. Reactor model predictions will be compared with the corresponding experimental data reported in the literature to validate the model . To simulate a gas-solid fluidized bed we need to use the multiphase flow approach . First we have to write the equations for the different flow regimes and then different CFD techniques are applied for discretization of those equations. After that a code is written for calculating the values of volume fraction , velocity and temperature
