The objective of this research is to develop the industrial-scale fluid bed dryer for paddy by scale-up of lab-scale experimental data. The developed dryer was conducted by simulation using a two phase model. Firstly, the experimental works by using lab-scale batch fluid bed dryer, was conducted to determine the drying curve of paddy (Xin 0.32 kg/kg dry base). In the experimental works,the inlet air temperature was varied (°C): 40; 50; 60. The drying rate curves as a function of moisture content showed only decreasing drying rate period. Then, a very good agreement between the measured and simualtion results of the profile of moisture content in solids was produced by simulator. Finally, asimulated continuous fluidized bed dryer for paddy with dimension 5 m of length and 1.5 of width was succesfully performed, in which the influence of mass solid flow rate 0.1; 0.2; 0.4 tons/h, height of bed 0.25; 0.50; 0.75 m, and air temperature 50; 70; 100 °C on drying process were studied. Keywords: Paddy; fluid bed dryer; batch, contonious;  modelling; simulation

The high-temperature synthesis of silicon carbide (SiC) in an electro-thermal fluidized bed reactor (EFB) has advantages, in comparison with the production in resistance furnaces, in terms of specific energy consumption, productivity and the level of automation of the technological process. The basic equations of the fluidized-bed carbide formation process model are presented in the paper. The results of calculating the synthesis parameters of finely dispersed SiC in the stationary operation mode of the EFB reactor are also presented. The correspondence between the calculated and available experimental results on the output of the final product is shown.

A new experimental fluidized bed reactor was investigated and designed which has been widely utilized for fast pyrolysis under different temperatures (T=727–973 K).The stresses of the reactor cylinder are analyzed using finite element method(FEM, ANSYS Inc., U.S.A ) based on the safety assessment, and the cylinder is designed for installing scheme. The result of ANSYS analysis shows that the stress unstable positions are nearby both ends of the cylinder. The results of analysis are shown that the designing stresses are not beyond the allow able ones. So the designing parameters can possess sufficient reliability, and the design scheme can completely satisfy the strength requirement. Certainty of the stress could offered the valuable instruction for the application of the equipment on industrial scale-up.

A model for transfer processes in column apparatuses has been done. The model may be modified for different apparatuses as columns with (or without) packet bed, two (or three) phase airlift reactors and fluidized bed reactors. The mass transfer is result of different volume reactions as a chemical, photochemical, biochemical or catalytic, reactions, or interphase. mass transfer. The using of the average velocities and concentration permit to solve the scale-up problems. A hierarchical approach for model parameter identification has been proposed.

Industrial history is full of events related to scale-up challenges. Failure at the scale-up stage is no longer surprising. Engineers and scientists have been trying to gather all the key parameters for decades, but, unfortunately, there are still no exact and well-established rules ensuring an accurate transition from one scale to another. Even the minimum lab-scale fluidized bed is still undefined.In this work, the effect of bed diameter on gas-solid behavior is investigated in three fluidized beds, 152mm, 78mm, and 50mm in diameter, in which the conventional scale-up rules are respected. The experiments were carried out using sand and alumina particles.The results were obtained and confirmed using fiber optic techniques and radioactive particle tracking, respectively. The results show that radial solid hold-up behavior on a small bed diameter scale is completely different from that on the intermediate bed diameter scale. The radial profile of solid hold-up on a small and very small bed diameter indicates an increase from a low value near the wall to a high value at the center at different heights from the distributor. By contrast, the opposite profile is observed on the intermediate bed diameter, similar to what is usually reported in the literature.
