Abstract
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has been used to model ozone decomposition in a two-dimensional fluidized bed of 2.0 meters height and 0.1 m width. Simulations were carried out with mono-size, bimodal, and wide catalyst particle size distributions with the same mean diameter to model the effect of fines on the reaction. CFD predictions fall within 20% of the experimental data.
