The Influence of Spiral Blade Distributor on Pressure Drop in a Swirling Fluidized Bed

Abstract: This work reports studies on the aerodynamics of air flow in the plenum chamber of a swirling fluidized bed. The study focused on the effect of annular spiral blade distributor configuration whereby the effect of various pitch length (60 mm, 80 mm and 100 mm) via various horizontal inclination angle (0°, 12° and 15°). The CFD method is used to compute and obtain the performance results as well as pressure drop data. Moreover, high pressure drop is undesirable since high pumping power is needed to sustain the p… Show more

“…In addition, designing a distributor is very critical. In the nature of conventional distributors, it is usually assumed that the pressure of the distributor reduces the ratio of the pressure [3][4][5][6][7]. The new type of fluidisation system (Swirling Fluidised Bed) can perform in low bed pressure depends not only on the type of distributor, as in Figure 1, but also on the fluidised particles, the depth of the bed, the velocity of surface gas, the aspect ratio of the bed and the tolerable percentage of uneven distribution [2].…”

“…Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a computer-aided engineering (CAE) tool used to analyze how a design reacts under real-world conditions. Useful in structural, vibration, and thermal analysis [6,7], FEA has been widely implemented by automotive companies. Based on the current wall mount bracket design available in the market, this study focuses on the effect of having different parameter values of the design structure.…”

“…Simulation analysis intends to verify that the product meets its requirements for operation. It can further provide insight into necessary changes and validate that the correct real-world tests are conducted, especially in engineering fields such as mechanical and electronic products [10,11]. The selected parameters in this study are crank arm length, width, thickness, number of cranks spider, and rib design.…”
