Comparison of Two‐Fluid and Discrete Particle Modeling of Dense Gas‐Particle Flows in Gas‐Fluidized Beds
Both two‐fluid models embedding the kinetic theory of granular flow for particulate phase stress (TFM) and discrete particle models (DPM) are widely used for the numerical simulation of gas fluidization. In this study, a detailed comparison between results obtained from both TFM and DPM is reported, including axial and radial solid concentration profiles, solids circulation patterns, pressure drop and its standard deviation and granular temperature. It was shown that good agreement can be obtained even in cases of low restitution coefficient, which suggests the possible applicability of kinetic theory of granular flow beyond its nominal range of validity and clearly indicates that the continuum treatment of the solids phase in TFM provides a good approximation of its discrete nature.
