The concentration profiles of jet gas are investigated in the feed injection zone of a cold-model FCC riser by using a hydrogen trace technique.Experimental results demonstrate that six types of jet gas concentration profiles can be used to describe the mixing process of the jet gas with pre-lift gas and catalyst particles in the feed injection zone.The six types are a distinct M-shaped profile for no mixing region,an indistinct M-shaped profile,a distinct three-peak profile,an indistinct three-peak profile and an one-peak profile for mixing region,and a annular-core profile for full mixing region.The heights for regions of initial and full mixing reduce when decreasing the jet gas velocity or increasing the pre-lift gas velocity. Furthermore,the momentum ratio,Mj/Mr,is introduced to describe effects of gas-solid physical properties,operating conditions,and equipment configuration on the jet gas concentration distribution.The heights for regions of no mixing,mixing and full mixing between jet gas with pre-lift gas and catalyst particles are found to be 0—0.375 m,0.375—0.525 m and 0.525—0.675 m when Mj/Mr≤0.29,0—0.525 m,0.525—1.225 m and 1.225—1.375 m when Mj/Mr>0.54,and 0—0.375 m,0.375—0.875 m and 0.875—1.075 m when Mj/Mr between 0.29 and 0.54,respectively.
