Bj. Alappat et Vc. Rane, STUDIES ON THE EFFECTS OF VARIOUS DESIGN AND OPERATIONAL PARAMETERS ON SOLID CIRCULATION RATE IN A RECIRCULATING FLUIDIZED-BED, Canadian journal of chemical engineering, 73(2), 1995, pp. 248-252
Effects of various operational parameters, such as draft tube superfic
ial air velocity and solid inventory and design parameters such as jet
diameter and clearance between perforated plate and draft tube bottom
on the solid circulation rate of a recirculating fluidized bed are st
udied. A simple butterfly valve arrangement was used for the direct me
asurement of the solid circulation rate.
