Spouted bed systems have emerged as very efficient fluid-particle contactors and find many applications in the chemical and biochemical industry. Some important applications of spouted beds include coal combustion, biochemical reactions, drying of solids, drying of solutions and suspensions, granulation, blending, grinding, and particle coating. An extensive overview can be found in Mathur and Epstein[1]. The pattern of solid and gas flows in a spouted bed was numerically simulated using a CFD modeling technique. The Eulerian-Eulerian multifluid modeling approach was applied to predict gas-solid flow behavior. A commercially available, control-volume-based code FLUENT 6.1 was chosen to carry out the computer simulations. In order to reduce computational times and required system resources, the 2D axisymmetric segregated solver was chosen. The typical flow pattern of the spouted bed was obtained in the present calculation. The simulated velocity and voidage profiles presented a good agreement qualitative and quantitative with the experimental results obtained by He et al. [4].

The spouted bed presents limitations in terms of scale-up. Furthermore, its stability depends on its geometry as well as the properties of the fluid and solid phases. CFD provides an important tool to improve understanding of these aspects, enabling a wide range of information to be obtained rapidly and at low cost. In this work, CFD simulation was used to evaluate the effects of different inlet air distributors (Venturi and straight tube) and the effects of static bed height on the fluid and solid dynamics of a conical spouted bed. Simulations were performed using the two-dimensional Euler-Euler approach. In order to evaluate the fluid dynamics model, static pressure data obtained by simulation were compared with experimental data obtained with the Venturi distributor. The fluid and solid dynamics of the conical spouted bed were obtained by CFD simulation. The results showed that the pressure drop was lower for the straight tube air distributor, while the Venturi air distributor provided higher stability and a more homogenous air distribution at the bed entrance.
