Characteristics of the hydrodynamics of conical spouted beds were revealed by analyzing pressure fluctuation signals in the frequency domain. Experiments were carried out in spouted beds with three different cone angles (30 degrees, 45 degrees, 60 degrees) and high density spherical particles (rho(p) = 6050 kg/m(3)) with diameters of 0.5 or 1 mm. Different hydrodynamic structures in the movement of solids were identified by examining pressure fluctuations of the bed in the frequency domain. Peaks in the power spectral density of pressure fluctuations were observed corresponding to movement of bulk of solids (low frequency, less than 5 Hz), particle transport in the spout (medium frequency, between Sand 15 Hz) and clustering and motion of clusters throughout the bed (high frequency, between 15 and 130 Hz). Axial movement of solids and pulsation motion of spout peripheries each exhibits a distinct peak in the medium frequency zone. It was shown by the frequency domain analysis of pressure fluctuations that solids are more mobile in annulus of a bed of smaller diameter particles and there is more effective lateral solid transfer from the annulus to the spout when the cone angle is smaller.

Flow behavior and regime transition in a high-density circulating fluidized bed riser
Kim, SW; Külah, Görkem; Bi, H; Lim, CJ; Grace, JR (2004-09-01)
Flow behavior and flow regime transitions were determined in a circulating fluidized bed riser (0.203 m i.d. x 5.9 m high) of FCC particles (d(p) = 70 pm, rho(p) = 1700 kg/m(3)). A momentum probe was used to measure radial profiles of solids momentum flux at several heights and to distinguish between local net upward and downward flow. In the experimental range covered (U-g = 5-8 m/s; G(s) = 22-345 kg/m(2) s), the fast fluidization flow regime was observed to coexist with dense suspension upflow (DSU). At a...
Characterization of gas-solid flow in conical spouted beds operating with heavy particles
Sari, Salih; Külah, Görkem; KÖKSAL, MURAT (2012-07-01)
This study presents the results of an experimental investigation of the hydrodynamics of conical spouted beds operating with high density particles. This type of spouted beds is frequently encountered in chemical vapor deposition coating of nuclear fuel elements. Measurements were performed in three 15 cm ID full circular (gamma = 30 degrees, 45 degrees, 60 degrees) and one half circular conical spouted (gamma = 30 degrees) bed with yttria-stabilized zirconia particles (d(p) = 0.5, 1 mm; rho(p) = 6050 kg/m(...
Hydraulic adjustments of the Bosphorus exchange flow
Oguz, T (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2005-03-19)
A three dimensional model elucidates connection between observed internal hydraulic characteristics of the Bosphorus flow and channel configuration. A typical two-layer, quasi-steady exchange flow system is shown to be hydraulically adjusted within the strait by a series of morphological features. Three successive hydraulic controls occur within the southern 10 km zone: first near the southern exit due to convex bending of the channel, then at the southern sill and at the constriction. Finally, the exchange...
Flow Field Investigation of Rib Roughened Serpentine channel
Yasa, Tolga; Kavas, İsa; Yılmaztürk, Sefa; Kurtuluş, Dilek Funda (Springer, 2016-01-01)
This paper presents numerical flow field and heat transfer analysis of a channel consisting of upstream and downstream channels and a 180° bend. Turbulators (rib) with a square cross-section are placed in the straight part of the channels in order to enhance the heat transfer while flow enters to the model at fully developed conditions at Reynolds numbers of 20000. A constant heat flux boundary condition is provided from the bottom wall of the model. Numerical simulations are performed by a commercial solve...
Transient wave propagation in encased viscoelastic cylinders
Turhan, D; Sen, O (2000-07-14)
In this study, propagation of transient dilatational waves in a viscoelastic cylinder contained in an elastic case is investigated. The viscoelastic material of the cylinder is modelled as standard linear solid. The encased viscoelastic cylinder is subjected to uniform time dependent dynamic inputs at its inner and outer boundaries. Method of characteristics is employed to obtain the solutions. Solutions for the case of an ablating inner surface are obtained as well. The numerical results are displayed in c...
