Abstract:This study investigates the behaviour of pyrolysis gas, generated by the thermal decomposing of biomass, in a pilot size reactor. The discreet mathematical model, Lattice Boltzmann, has adopted for mathematical simulation of flow of pyrolysis gas across a porous bed of biomass. The effect of permeability, pressure gradient, voidage of bed, density, temperature, and the dynamic viscosity on the mass flow rate of gas is examined by simulating the gas flow across the fixed bed of hardwood. The Darcy equation is u… Show more
