Abstract This review is an extension of our 2014 circulating fluidized bed (CFB) plenary lecture. A derivation of multiphase mass, momentum and energy balances is presented, with a review of elementary kinetic theory, to explain the concepts of granular temperature and pressure and the core-annular flow regime commonly observed in CFB. The kinetic theory shows that the particle concentration is given by the reciprocal of a fourth order parabola of dimensional tube radius, in agreement with experiments. Computed flow regimes and heat and mass transfer coefficients in fluidization are also discussed.
