An experimental investigation was conducted to determine the thermal contact conductance of packed beds of spherical particles in contact with flat surfaces. Beds comprised of four materials, Aluminum 2017-T4, Yellow Brass, Stainless Steel 304, and Chromium Alloy AISI 52100, all in contact with flat Stainless Steel 304, surfaces were evaluated in a vacuum environment, at a mean interface temperature of 66°C. In addition to the experimental program, an analytical expression was developed by combining previous work performed by other investigators. The results of the experimental investigation are compared with the analytical expression and indicate that an accurate method of predicting the thermal contact conductance at the interface between beds of spherical particles and nominally flat surfaces has been identified.

In wall-bounded gas-solid flows the wall collision process plays an important role and may be strongly affected by wall roughness and particle shape. The modelling of the particle-wall collision mostly relies on the assumption of spherical particles. To extend such models appropriately for non-spherical particles, two-dimensional kinetic simulations were performed for different particle shapes. This implies, that the particle translational and angular motion is calculated by considering the particle shape, however neglecting fluid dynamic effects. The change of the particle velocities during the impact and rebound process was calculated by solving the impulse equations together with Coulombs law of friction. The simulations were performed for a given initial particle velocity by varying impact angle and initial angular velocity. The results for 2000 particle wall collisions allowed us to derive the distribution functions of the impact parameters required to describe the wall collision process for non-spherical particles correctly. Moreover, other wall collision properties, such as rebound angle and velocity ratios could be determined. Finally also a comparison with measurements was possible.

In this study, a three-phase (gas-liquid-solid) fluidized bed was used to study the heat transfer characteristics of the system. The system consisted of low density (290 kg/m3) spherical particles of the diameter of 2 cm in 0.25 m cylindrical column with the countercurrent flow of water and air. The experimental investigation and mathematical modeling of heat transfer between the hot air and the cooling water was carried out. The experiments were conducted for the variety of different fluid flow rates and inlet air temperatures, while the air flow rate was kept constant. Based on the obtained experimental results a new correlation for heat transfer in three-phase fluidized system was proposed. The mean percentage error between the experimental and the correlated values of the jHp obtained was 1.69%. The hydrodynamic parameters of the system were also calculated according to the available literature correlations.
