Comparison of the Results of Experimental Investigations of a Vibrofluidized Bed with Calculations by a Granular Gas Hydrodynamic Model

  • Published:
Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

A comparison has been made between the results of numerical calculations of the vibrofluidization process of relatively large dolomite and fi ne glass particles by a granular gas hydrodynamic model and the corresponding experimental data. Good agreement is observed between the numerical calculations and the experimental data in the case of vibrofluidization of relatively thin layers of the above materials. On the basis of the obtained results, the field of use of the granular gas hydrodynamic model for describing the vibrofluidization process has been determined.
