Gas-solid flows are involved in numerous industrial processes and occur in various natural phenomena. This authoritative book addresses the fundamental principles that govern gas-solid flows and the application of these principles to various gas-solid flow systems. The book is arranged in two parts: Part I deals with basic relationships and phenomena, including particle size and properties, collision mechanics, momentum transfer, heat and mass transfer, basic equations, and intrinsic phenomena in gas-solid flows. Part II discusses gas-solid flow systems of industrial interest such as gas-solid separators, hoppers and standpipes, dense-phase fluidised beds, fluidised beds, pneumatic conveying systems, and heat and mass transfer in fluidisation systems. As a comprehensive text on gas-solid flows, including end-of-chapter problems, this book is aimed at graduate students, but will also be useful to a broad range of engineers and applied scientists.
Part I. Basic Relationships: 1. Size and properties of particles; 2. Collision mechanics of solids; 3. Momentum transfer and charge transfer; 4. Basic heat and mass transfer; 5. Basic equations; 6. Intrinsic phenomena in a gas-solid flow; Part II. System Characteristics: 7. Gas-solid separation; 8. Hopper and stand pipe flows; 9. Dense-phase fluidized beds; 10. Circulating fluidized beds; 11. Pneumatic conveying of solids; 12. Heat and mass transfer phenomena in fluidization systems; Appendix; Summary of scalar, vector, and tensor notations.
