Abstract
A systematic investigation on elutriation behavior conducted in a vortexing fluidized bed (VFB) cold model is studied. The effects of various parameters on the elutriation are investigated from the data obtained by using ‘response surface methodology’ (RSM) to determine the relationship between elutriation rate and operating conditions. The results show that all the interactions among primary air flow rate, secondary air flow rate, fine particle size, secondary air inlet diameter, and imaginary circle diameter had significant influences on elutriation behavior in the VFB. The modified regression models of the ‘specific elutriation rate constant’ (K*) were also submitted in this study.
