Abstract

AbstractThe goal of this work is the simulation of concentration and temperature distributions insides fluidized bed with a uniform liquid distribution. Further, a physically based 2D model is developed for the heat and mass transfer processes in fluidized beds with a spray nozzle. The model is a coupled and semi‐linear system of convection‐reaction‐diffusion equations. We considered the numerical solution of these semi‐linear partial differential equations with discrete boundary conditions using linear finite elements on an adaptive triangular grid in space and implicit methods in time. We present calculations using, semi implicit and implicit methods in time, and different solvers for solving the linear systems. The complex correlations of mass and liquid flow rates, mass transfer, heat transfer, drying, and transient two dimensional air humidity, air temperature, degree of wetness, liquid film temperature and particle temperature were simulated.
