The magnetic monitoring system provides besides the spatial coordinates x, y and z the orientation of the particle, whereby the trajectory, the velocity, the acceleration as well as the rotation of the particle are obtained. It will be demonstrated that the characteristic particle trajectories and particle velocity distributions in dependency of the gas throughput and of the bed mass can be detected in this type of spouted bed. Furthermore, a calculated particle velocity distribution obtained by a CFD continuum simulation will be favorably compared with a measured distribution.en0009-250920092348114825FluidizationMathematical modelingMultiphase flowParticle processingRheologySimulationJournal Article10.1016/j.ces.2009.08.025Journal Article
