“…While computationally fast and mathematically simple, the major weakness of such models is their inability to represent the anisotropy that is characteristic of most real biomass feedstock particles. Two‐ and three‐dimensional models include anisotropy, and can allow for vapor flow fields within and around the particles (Bellais, ; Blasi, ; Kersten, Wang, Prins, & van Swaaij, ; Leonardi, de Vahl Davis, Yuen, & Yeoh, ; A. Mahmoudi, Mejri, Abbassi, & Omri, ; Okekunle, Watanabe, Pattanotai, & Okazaki, ; Paulsen, ; X. Wang, Kersten, Prins, & van Swaaij, ; Wiggins et al, ). Some single particle models have included formation and evaporation of the liquid intermediate phase (Bounaceur, Ouartassi, Dufour, & Zoulalian, ; Boutin, Ferrer, & Lédé, ; Di Blasi, ; Sezen, ) and even boiling and aerosol generation in that phase (Ghazaryan, ; Montoya, Pecha, Janna, & Garcia‐Perez, ; Teixeira et al, ).…”
