Circulating fluidized bed hydrodynamics with air staging: an experimental study

The influence of secondary air injection (SA) on the hydrodynamics of circulating fluidized beds was studied in a 0.23-m ID riser. The secondary to primary air ratio, the vertical position, and the mode of injection (radial, tangential, and 45j entrance) are considered to be the key parameters of SA injection. It was found that the amount and location of SA have direct influence on the solids holdup and the segregation patterns in the riser. The SA divided the riser into two different flow zones: a dense turbulent zone below and a relatively dilute bed above the injection port. The mean solids velocity is found to be upwards with a greater magnitude in the center region. It is downwards with a smaller magnitude along the walls, suggesting core-annular flow structures for both above and below the SA injection region.
