Pressure-drop predictions in a fixed-bed coal gasifier
(Elsevier science, 2011)In the Sasol Synfuels plant in Secunda, Sasol-Lurgi fixed-bed dry-bottom gasifiers are used for the conversion of low-grade bituminous coals to synthesis gas (syngas). The gasifiers are fed with lump coal having a particle ... -
Using an effective viscosity to account for the effect of the walls on the pressure drop through an annular packed bed
(ASME, 2009)The question arose whether the correlation for the pressure drop prescribed for cylindrical pebble bed reactors by the Nuclear Safety Commission (KTA) of Germany could still be applied to the proposed annular configuration ...
