In contrast to the situation in atmospheric FBCs experiments in pressurized test facilities have revealed strong temperature gradients within the fluidized bed depending on the fuel feed system. Therefore a model h been developed to simulate the physical situation inside a PFBC combustor [6]. It is compose of two mass balances for both the carbon concentration Cq an t e oxygen... 

The numerical simulations presented in this chapter could be thought to represent a starting point for programmes of study into the prediction of fluidization quality in existing and envisaged physical systems. The potential for such methods is immense, as the few results presented above amply illustrate. The eventual goal is a numerical code, which could be applied with confidence to the elimination of much of the uncertainty at...
