Mathematical Modeling of Coal Gasification in a Fluidized Bed Reactor Using a Eulerian Granular Description

Abstract: A three-dimensional computational model was developed to describe the coal-gasification processes inside fluidized-bed reactors. The commercial multi-purpose CFD code FLUENT 6.3 was employed, taking into account drying, volatilization, combustion and gasification processes. Both gas phase and solid phase were described using a eulerian approach to model the exchanges of mass, energy and momentum between phases. The disperse phase was described using the kinetic theory of granular flows. The chemical model invo… Show more

“…The gasification products are vented through the side near the top of the gasifier, being carried with the "updraft", while the ash and char are deposited out the bottom. (1.1) (Cornejo & Farias, 2011). These reactions take place around 773K.…”

“…Since there is no data on the exact distribution of the volatiles in biomass, they were predicted using Equation 1.4, where VOL indicates the total volatile content of the biomass, based on the dry proximate analysis of each biomass (Cornejo & Farias, 2011).…”
