Abstract
AbstractFor moving‐bed solids flow in an inclined pipe leading into a fluidized bed, the pressure drop across the pipe is a retarding force while the gas leakage rate alters the flow properties of the solids. The pressure drop has been related to the pipe exit pressure, which, in turn, can be calculated by integrating the solids bulk density over the bed depth. A correlation for the rate of gas leakage in terms of the geometric features and operating conditions of the system is developed. The correlation agrees with experimental data to within ± 25%. Part II of this paper will deal with solids flow.
