Abstract

The forced convective flow of an ideal gas through a packed bed was investigated by finite-difference numerical means. Oscillating gas-phase temperature/ pressure inlet boundary conditions were considered. The effect of oscillating boundary conditions on the transport phenomena in the packed bed was investigated and comparisons were made with the case of constant-temperature and constant-pressure boundary conditions. The average energy storage characteristics were found to be very close in both oscillating and constant inlet boundary conditions.
