ON THE INFLUENCE OF PARTICLE ENTRAINMENT FROM AN INHOMOGENEOUS FLUIDIZED BED ON THE HYDRODYNAMICS OF THE VORTEX OVER-BED ZONE

Experimental investigation of the radial distributions of tangential air velocity and total pressure in the vortex overbed zone of a fl uidized bed of diameter 0.393 m has been carried out. The infl uence of the entrainment of particles from the bed in the exhaust trails of gas bubbles on the maximum values of tangential velocity and total pressure has been established.
