Abstract
The gas-solid flows in a 2-dimensional downer were simulated using a CFD-DEM method. The predicted macro-scale flow structure had good agreement with the experiments. The distinct clustering phenomena at meso-scale were revealed throughout the downer. Influences of the collision properties of the wall and the particles on the hydrodynamics in downer were investigated.
