Multiphase CFD modeling - scale-up of Fluidized-Bed Crystallizer

摘要

The main goal of this study was to obtain a closer look to scale up problem of theFluidized-Bed crystallizer operation, in particular for solids concentration larger than 10vol.%. To achieve that a multi-phase CFD code was used. Such an approach to thisproblem has not been investigated until now. Data collected using CFD technique,impossible to obtain in any other way, especially for an industrial apparatus, providesthe information about the suspension flow behaviour in such crystallizers.
