From fluidisation to swirling: flow regime identification in a toroidal fluidised bed using imaging and pressure drop

Toroidal fluidised bed (TORBED) reactors have emerged as a promising option for superior heat and mass transfer in gas–solid contacting applications. This study investigates a small-scale, 3D-printed TORBED containing fine silica particles (90 µm) to perform a hydrodynamic analys...
