Improvement On Particulate Mixing Through Inclined Slotted Swirling Distributor In A Fluidized Bed: An Experimental Study

Previous studies show that excellent particulate mixing in a fluidized bed can reduce the operating cost during fluidization. Therefore, this paper investigates enhancement of particulate mixing in a fluidized bed by using novel inclined slotted swirling distributor. To reduce the cost of pumping po...
