Abstract
A three-dimensional simulation is carried out to investigate the impact of pulsation flow on segregation behavior of binary mixture in a fluidized bed via the multi-fluid model. The simulated results are compared against the experimental data. The impacts of pulsation frequency and operating condition on flow and segregation behavior of binary mixture are discussed. The results reveal that an excessive increase of pulsation frequency and operating temperature is not beneficial to the enhancement of segregation efficiency. The pulsation frequency plays a more important role in segregation efficiency under a small size discrepancy of binary mixture. Meanwhile, the effect of pulsed air flow waveform on segregation efficiency of particles is also analyzed.
