Abstract

A model of a fluidized bed as a medium consisting of two interacting interpenetrating ideal fluids is used to investigate the propagation of one-dimensional linear and nonlinear perturbations of the particle concentration in a gas-fluidized bed. The interaction of the particles with each other is taken into account by introducing into the momentum conservation equation for the dispersed phase an effective pressure that depends on the local porosity of the bed and the relative velocity of the dispersed and dispersion phases. The conditions of hyperbolicity of the system of equations describing wave propagation are determined. The stability of the uniform state is investigated. Dispersion effects in the fluidized bed are considered. The propagation of a steady dispersed-phase concentration wave is investigated. The conditions of formation of concentration discontinuities at the steady wave front are determined.
