This paper reviews the recent advances in multi-scale computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
simulations of biomass pyrolysis in fluidized bed reactors. The interconnection among …

The EMMS/bubbling drag model takes the effects of meso-scale structures (ie bubbles) into
modeling of drag coefficient and thus improves coarse-grid simulation of bubbling and …

A user-defined solver integrating the solid-gas surface reactions and the multi-phase particle-
in-cell (MP-PIC) approach is built based on the OpenFOAM software. The solver is tested …

The heat transfer coefficient in the combustion chamber of industrial circulating flidized bed
(CFB) boilers depends on many parameters as it is a result of multifactorial mechanisms …

The paper deals with numerical simulations of CuO-based oxygen carrier in the Chemical
Looping Combustion (CLC) process by the use of CeSFaMB software. The oxygen carrier …

The effect of bed material density on gas-particle hydrodynamics and wall erosion in the
world's first 550 MWe ultra-supercritical (USC) circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boiler was …

Large-scale circulating fluidized bed (CFB) power generation units with high steam pressure
and temperature have been put into operation in order to obtain high cycle efficiency and …

Measured and numerical results of air-fuel combustion process within large scale industrial
circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boiler is presented in this paper. For numerical simulations …

The primary goal when designing a CFB boiler is to ensure its high energy efficiency.
Additional constraints come from environmental regulations, which are constantly becoming …
