Prediction of cavity size in the packed bed systems using new correlations and mathematical model

摘要

The present invention relates to prediction of cavity size in the packed bed systems using new correlations and mathematical model and more particularly, using simplified equations, based on analytical solution of one-dimensional mathematical model, that have been developed along with the cavity correlations to describe the cavity size and hysteresis that give a universal approach to predict the cavity size which is applicable to any packed bed systems like blast furnaces, cupola, Corex, catalytic, regenerator etc and is able to represent, in a good way, the data of other researchers provided the frictional properties of the particulate are known.
