Numerical simulation and experimental validation of inter-phase forces in dynamic process of liquid-solid fluidization
Choosing the appropriate interphase force model is the key to CFD modeling of liquid-solid fluidization dynamic characteristics. Measured overall solids holdups are validated by Richardson-Zaki correlation under steady-state operating conditions. Then five drag formulas including Wen-Yu
Gidaspow
Syamlal-O
Brien
Dallavalle and TGS are assessed in the contraction and expansion processes by using Euler-Euler two-fluid model with the kinetic theory of granular flow. Furthermore
the influence of the classical lift model suggested by Moraga
et al
. on CFD predictions and the influ
ence mechanism of main inter-phase forces are discussed. The results compared with the experimental data show that the response time of bed contraction process predicted by Syamlal- O
Brien or TGS drag model is more accurate than those by the others. Moreover
TGS drag model shows the most reasonable prediction in overall solids holdup. For the bed expansion process
TGS drag model gives more reliable prediction in the response time and overall solids holdup than the other models. The main reason behind the best hydrodynamic performance with TGS drag model in this study is that the modeling basis of TGS drag model is consistent with the dynamic behaviors of particles in liquid-solid system. The lift model has little influence on the CFD results
and thus it can be ignored in the modelling of inter-phase force for the dynamic characteristics according to the homogeneous liquid-solid fluidized system investigated in this study.
