Abstract
Abstract In gas-solids risers of fast fluidization regime, the gross particle flux determined by integrating the product of the measured average particle concentration and velocity is always found several times or even larger than that measured by direct experimental methods. Based on analysis of the measurement mechanisms and a simple model for two-phase flow structure in gas-solids risers, this big unidirectional deviation is first explained in depth in this study. It is concluded that the unique two-phase flow structure (i.e. the low-velocity dense phase and high-velocity dilute phase in a gas-solids riser) and the bad coupling quality of the measured transient particle concentration and velocity during data processing lead to this big unidirectional deviation. Finally, this explanation is extended to wider multiphase flow systems and advices are proposed in measuring phase fluxes.
