Title
Numerical Investigation of the Layer-Inversion Phenomenon in Binary Solid Liquid Fluidized Beds
Publication Date
May 2007
Abstract
Layer inversion behaviour in binary-solid liquid fluidized beds is examined using a Combined Continuum and Discrete Model. A suitable bidisperse system was selected from information in the literature. By simulating the fluidization of the system at a range of liquid velocities, varying degrees of segregation and mixing have been observed.
