Abstract
In order to study the gas-solid flow characteristics in a rotational spouted-fluidized bed dryer, the eulerian multi-phase model was applied in three-dimensional numerical simulation of a rotational spouted-fluidized bed to analyze the effect of different velocity ratios between bottom and tangential wind on gas and particle velocity distribution characteristics, and the change rule of gas-solid flow state with the time at the velocity ratio of 30 m·s-1/30 m·s-1 was derived. The results show that the increase of tangential wind velocity is propitious to enhance the gas flow rate in the region near the wall and make the gas-solid phase mix sufficiently as well as augment of the contact area of gas and particle phase, and decrease of the gas flow dead zones and the adhesion of viscous materials to cylinder wall. However, the negative pressure formed by the entrainment effect of tangential wind goes against the development of gas flow along the axial direction reducing the penetration effect of axial wind to the granular layer.
