This study reports a numerical CFD study concerning the effect of frost thickness on the heat transfer performance of a vertical pipe. Simulation are made under various variables affecting the frost growth such as outer flowing air conditions (temperature, flow velocity, humidity) and inner flow conditions of cryogenic fluid. The frost growth is mainly associated with the outer conditions. The frost thermal conductivity could play an important role in the froth growth. There is no great. The simulation for frost formation carried out with coupling to a commercial CFD code(CFX). The CFD simulation offers the possibility to predict frost formation within vertical geometries. The frost formation is based on the Lewis analogy of heat and mass transfer and it is embedded with CFX. The vertical surface temperature of the freezing body is determined by fluid structure interactive error method.

AbstractCO2 capture using solid sorbents in fluidized bed reactors is a promising technology. The multiphase CFD model is increasingly developed to study the reactors, but it is difficult to model all the realistic details and it requires significant computational time. In this study, both the multiphase CFD model (i.e., CFD-DEM model coupled with reaction) and the simplified reactor models (i.e., plug flow model and bubbling two-phase model) are developed for modeling a fluidized bed CO2 capture reactor. The comparisons are made at different gas velocities from fixed bed to fluidized bed. The DEM based model reveals a detailed view of CO2 adsorption process with particle flow dynamics, based on which the assumptions in the simplified models can be evaluated. The plug flow model predictions generally show similar trends to the DEM model but there are quantitative differences; thus, it can be used to determine the reactor performance limit. The bubbling two-phase model gives better predictions than the plug flow model because the effect of bubbles on the inter-phase mass transfer and reaction is included. In the future, a closer combination of the multiphase CFD simulation and the simplified reactor models will likely be an efficient design method of CO2 capture fluidized bed reactors.
