Mass transfer between the gas and solid particles in a fluidized bed

Simulation of gas–solid two-phase flow by a multi-scale CFD approach—of the EMMS model to the sub-grid level

“…b Meso-scale parameter is taken from experimental correlation (Harris et al, 2002;Tamarin, 1981). and the time-dependent behavior of particle-fluid two-phase flow.…”

Mass transfer around freely moving active particles in the dense phase of a gas fluidized bed of inert particles

“…Tamarin (1982) applied the steady-state boundary layer theory for flow past a sphere to describe mass transfer to an active particle in a fluidized bed of inert particles. The average velocity gradient and the average tangential stress at the particle surface were determined with suitable simplifying assumptions.…”

Mass Transfer around Active Particles in Fluidized Beds

“…Equation 16 (Tamarin, 1982) significantly overpredicts the data. The two models by Guedes de Carvalho and coworkers (Eqs 20 and 21) give practically the same results and underpredict the data, except for the largest inert particle sizes.…”
