A comprehensive comparison of Two-Fluid Model, Discrete Element Method and experiments for the simulation of single- and multiple-spout fluidized beds Open
We employ a two-fluid model (TFM) as well as a computational fluid dynamics coupled to discrete element method (CFD-DEM) approach to study the time averaged hydrodynamics of single- and multiple-spout fluidized beds. Simulations are valida…

Product-Property Guided Scale-Up of a Fluidized Bed Spray Granulation Process Using the CFD-DEM Method Open
In this work, a method to predict the surface structures of particles produced by fluidized bed spray layering granulation using the CFD-DEM method was developed. A simple state-variable/event tracking approach was implemented to capture i…

Predicting the performance of different fluidized and spouted beds for spray granulation using CFD‐DEM simulations Open
Fluidized bed spray granulation is the preferred way of generating functional, high value granular products. By injecting a solution or suspension onto a fluidized particle bed, the particles grow layer by layer. The process conditions, sp…

Simulation of spray coating in a spouted bed using recurrence CFD Open
Although numerical models such as the computational fluid dynamics–discrete element method(CFD–DEM) have enabled the accurate simulation of laboratory-scale apparatuses, the application ofthese methods to large-scale apparatuses with many …
