1. ABSTRACT

The effect of particle size on the radiative component of

heat transfer in high temperature fluidized beds is examined. One

radiometer probe is used to measure both the total and radiative

components of heat flux. Two sizes of silica sand particles are

tested at bed temperatures of 200 to 750'C. The radiation heat

flux, percentage of total heat flux due to radiation, total heat

transfer coefficient, radiative heat transfer coefficient, and bed

emissivity are the parameters considered.

The radiative heat flux does not vary with particle size, and

the values obtained agree with those of previous studies. The per-

centage of total heat transfer due to radiation is found to be sig-

nificant for bed temperatures greater than 400*C and increases with

increasing particle size. At 7500C, the radiative component is 20

percent of the total heat flux for the small particles and 30 per-

cent for the larger particles.

The smaller particles have a larger total heat transfer coef-

ficient than the large particles at all bed temperatures. When the

fluidizing velocity is increased, the total heat transfer coeffic-

ient decreases for both particle sizes. The radiative heat transfer

coefficient has the same values for both particle types at all bed

temperatures.

The emissivity of the bed is larger for the large particles at

all temperatures but always remains less than one. The small

Page 17: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

particles reach a maximum emissivity of 0.98 at 460°C while the

maximum emissivity of the larger particles is 0. 8 at 5000 C. At

750C the emissivities of the small and large particles are 0.75

and 0.80, respectively.

2. INTRODUCTION

Fluidized beds have been used in a wide range of industrial

applications to include power generation, thermal cracking of heavy

hydrocarbons, gasification of oil shale and coal, drying of gran-

ular materials, heat treatment of metals, heating and cooling of

gases and granular solids, and the coating of metal surfaces with

plastics.

The particular application for which this research work was

conducted is the combustion of coal for power production. The use

of fluidized beds is particularly important in the combustion of

bituminous coal having a high sulfur content. Combustion of bitum-

inous coal using a fluidized bed allows the use of an abundant

resource which was previously restricted due to the atmospheric

pollution it causes when burned. By using an additive such as

limestone or dolomite in the fluidized bed, the sulfur dioxide

produced during combustion can be retained in the combustor,

greatly reducing the amount of sulfur dioxide released to the at-

mosphere. The reaction of the sulfur dioxide with the limestone

also helps minimize corrosion of the boiler system within the bed.

The steam generated in the boiler is then used to drive turbines

for electrical power generation [13].

In addition to the advantages mentioned above, fluidized beds

are highly desirable for power generation because of their highI'

rate of heat transfer and their extremely high thermal conductivity

3

(up to one hundred times that of silver) [12]. They also produce a

uniform temperature which can be easily controlled.

Many variables affect the heat transfer rate in a fluidized

bed. These include the velocity and thermal conductivity of the

gas, the size and density of the solid particles and the geometric

properties of the bed and the heat exchanger [12]. Further, many

of these properties are interrelated thus making analysis of the

heat transfer more complicated. However, the physical means by

which the heat transfer takes place at the heat exchanger surface

can be described by the operation of four mechanisms:

1. Heat transfer through a thin film of gas. The

thickness of the film can vary depending on whether

a gas bubble is near the surface or the emulsion is

uniform and close to the surface.

2. Heat transfer through direct contact of the solid

particles with the exchanger surface accompanied by

frequent replat-isrcnt of the particles at the surface.

3. Unsteady-state absorption of heat by fresh emulsion

which is swept up to and then away from the surface.

4. Steady-state conduction through an emulsion layer

which is only replaced occasionally by fresh emulsion

from the core of the bed or by bubbles rising along

the surface.

Mechanisms I and 2 operate in parallel, followed by either mechanism

3 or 4 or a combination of the two [12]. Throughout the interactions

4

Page 20: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

of these mechanisms, heat transfer takes place by conduction, con-

vection, and radiation. The significance of the radiation mode in

the total heat transfer process within fluidized beds has been the

subject of much discussion.

The purpose of this study is to examine the significance of

the radiation mode within the entire heat transfer process and to

determine the effect of particle size on radiation. This is ac-

complished by measuring both the radiative and total heat fluxes

transmitted to a radiometer probe immnersed in a fluidized bed of

silica sand.

3. BACKGROUND

L. J. Jolley performed one of the first high temperature heat

transfer experiments in 1949. He assumed that for temperatures

greater than 100*C, the total heat flux was composed of both a

radiative and non-radiative part.

to ra + %on-rad

He measured the total heat transfer by lowering a cylindrical metal

block of either copper or aluminum into a fluidized bed. He removed

the block from the bed after 20-30 seconds and imediately immersed

it in water in a calorimeter. He maintained the bed temperature in

a range of 800 to 10000C by the combustion of coke. The radiative

component of heat transfer was determined by assuming black body

radiation from the bed to the metal block which was maintained at

5

Page 21: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

an average temperature of 1000C.

q IETb4 - (100 + 273)]

The non-radiative component was estimated by recording the cooling

rate of a metal block at 1000C in a fluidized bed at room tempera-

ture. Jolley then linearly extrapolated his results for high temp-

eratures. The sum of these radiative and non-radiative components

seemed to agree with the total heat transfer measurements [9].

In 1964, Kharchenko and Makhorin conducted heat transfer ex-

periments using a fluidized bed of clay or sand and a spherical

copper probe, six centimeters in diameter. The bed temperature

ranged up to 10500C and was controlled by burning natural gas.

Their results yielded a linear relationship between the bed temper-

ature and the maximum heat transfer coefficient. For radiation to

contribute significantly to the total heat transfer, they believed

that it should have caused the total heat transfer coefficient to

vary as the third power of the bed temperature. Since it did not,

they concluded that radiative heat transfer between the bed and the

submerged probe was not significant, even at high temperatures [10].

In 1968, Il'chenko et al. used two radiometer probes to deter-

mine the radiative component of heat transfer in fluidized beds with

temperatures up to 17001K. One probe measured the total heat flux

while the other measured only the radiant flux. Sand, chamotte,

fused magnesite, corundum, and zirconium dioxide particles were

used for the experiments. They found that the total heat flux was

6

Page 22: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

linearly dependent on bed temperature for all the particle sizes

tested except for corundum at temperatures greater than 15000K.

The radiant heat flux was found to be less than that calculated for

an ideal black body at the same temperature. They concluded that

this difference between the experimental and calculated values of

radiant heat flux was due to two simultaneously acting factors:

the bed emissivity was less than one and the particles were being

cooled at the probe surface [8].

Also in 1968, Szekely and Fisher performed experiments in

which they tried to attain purely radiant heat transfer for source

temperatures as low as 6000 K. In these experiments, they trans-

mitted heat through a transparent wall while maintaining the wall

at the bulk bed temperature. They used particles of iron shot,

silicon carbide, and porous alumina with bed temperatures to 6500 K.

By comparing the radiant heat transfer coefficients determined from

their experiments with the bed to wall heat transfer coefficients

reported in literature, they concluded that the radiation contribu-

tion to total heat transfer was negligible for wall temperatures on

the order of 600 to 7000K. They used an analytical analysis to

estimate the relative importance of radiative heat transfer for

temperatures greater than those used in their experimental work.

In addition to radiation, they considered conduction through the

gas into the solid particles. They found that radiant heat trans-

fer increases with increasing source temperature and particle resi-

dence time. In analyzing the effects of particle size, they

7

Page 23: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

determined that the ratio of radiant to convective heat flux tends

to increase with decreasing particle size for particle diameters

less than 200 microns. However, for larger particle diameters, the

ratio increased with increasing particle size. This was explained

by the fact that small particles attain thermal equilibrium rapidly,

and the final approach to equilibrium is faster for the radiant

transfer mechanism. Finally, they concluded it was an oversimpli-

fication to consider the radiative and convective heat transfer

modes independently [15].

In 1970, Botterill and Sealey further analyzed the results of

Il'chenko et al. They determined that when the radiation component

is neglected, the limiting factor for heat transfer is the thermal

conductivity of the gas. The convective component of heat transfer

was found to remain fairly constant and showed no increase at

higher bed temperatures even though the conductivity of the air

increased with increasing air temperature. Since the overall heat

transfer coefficient also continued to increase, they concluded that

at higher temperatures some heat is transferred by radiation "at the

expense" of convection, and the two mechanisms are not simply addi-

tive [6].

Baskakov and Goldobin also investigated the experimental re-

sults of Il'chenko in 1970. They calculated the temperature of the

glass surface of the radiant heat flux probe inside the fluidized

bed and found t'iat the temperature at the center of the glass sur-

face was virtually the same as the bed temperature. They concluded

8

Page 24: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

that Il'chenko's experiment had not determined the radiant component

of heat transfer from the bed to the body which it heats, but in-

stead had determined the total radiation of the bed without consid-

ering the temperature reduction in the particles pressed to the

body's surface as compared to the actual temperature of the bed [1].

Baskakov and Goldobin also conducted their own experiments to

determine the radiative component of the total heat transfer coef-

ficient. These experiments involved the determination of heat

transfer coefficients, for a "black" stainless steel ball with

an emissivity of 0.8 and awh for a "white" sphere of the same size

and material but coated with silver and having an emissivity of

0.02 to 0.07. They assumed that radiation had little effect on the

conductive-convective component of heat transfer. Then considering

the fact that the radiation on the "white" sphere is almost totally

reflected, they concluded that the difference otbz- awh yields the

radiative component of the heat transfer coefficient. They also

developed a "packet" model which considered the total heat transfer

from the bed to the wall to be composed of both conductive-convec-

tive and radiative heat transfer when the wall is in contact with

the particles of the packet but to be composed of only radiative

heat transfer when the wall is in contact with a bubble. In com-

paring the calculations based on their packet model to the radia-

tive component determined experimentally using the "black" and

"white" spheres, they found that, although not in exact agreement,

their results did show better agreement than the other models [1].

9

Page 25: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

In 1972, Yoshida et al. extended their previous model of heat

transfer to high temperature conditions. In their packet model,

when bubbles cover the surface of the heat exchanger, heat is trans-

ferred by radiation from the inner surface of the bubbles to the

surface of the heat exchanger. When the heat exchanger surface is

covered by the emulsion, heat is transferred by conduction. The

radiant heat transfer inside an emulsion element is taken into ac-

count by the effective thermal conductivity of the emulsion. They

found that the contribution of radiant heat transfer was negligible

when compared with that due to conduction for operating tempera-

tures less than 12000C and concluded that the radiant heat transfer

was not significant [19].

Vedamurthy and Sastri performed a similar analysis in 1973,

based upon a gas film emulsion packet model. Their results contra-

dicted those of Yoshida et al. For a bed temperature of 9000C,

they found radiation to comprise 13 to 30 percent of the total heat

flux. The radiative heat transfer coefficient increased with in-

creasing fluidizing velocity while the conductive coefficient de-

creased. The combined effect decreased the total heat transfer co-

efficient. The increase in the radiative component was attributed

to an increase in the area of gas film exposed to bubbles with in-

creasing bed velocity. The conductive coefficient varied linearly

with bed temperature while the radiative and total heat transfer

coefficients were nonlinear especially at higher temperatures [18].

10

Page 26: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

Based on their previous experiments with steel spheres of dif-

ferent emissivities, Baskakov et al. stated in 1973 that the fluid-

ized particles close to the heat transfer surface were cooled by

the heat exchange with the surface so that the radiant heat flux

from these particles to the surface was less than if they were at

bed temperature. By taking measurements from a flat quartz glass

immersed within a fluidized bed, they found that the effective emis-

sivity of the fluidized bed in contact with the glass surface area

was dependent upon both the surface temperature of the glass and the

bed temperature. It was also noted that the larger the particle

size, the greater the percentage of total heat transferred by radi-

ation, although the absolute quantity of heat transferred by radia-

tion was not dependent on particle size or fluidizing velocity for

the range of bed temperatures examined [2].

In 1976, Bhattacharya and Harrison performed a theoretical

analysis using a packet model similar to that of Vedamurthy and

Sastri. The only difference was that they treated the emulsion

phase as both an absorbing and emitting medium. In comparing their

calculated ratio of the average radiative to overall heat transfer

coefficient as a function of surface temperature with Baskakov's

experimental results, they found that their values were signifi-

cantly higher than his. This discrepancy was attributed to the

different emissivities used in the two studies (c= 0.8 Baskakov,

:I=.0 this study). They stated that the surface temperatures of

the probes used in the experiments and the emissivities of the heat

11

transfer surfaces were very important. Furthermore, the radiative

and conductive heat fluxes could not be evaluated separately. They

found that increasing either the conductive or radiative components

of heat transfer had the effect of suppressing the other [5].

Also in 1976, Thring developed three models of heat transfer,

similar to those of Bhattacharya and Harrison and Vedamurthy and

Sastri. In all three models, the convective heat transfer coeffic-

ient decreased with increasing wall temperature while the radiative

coefficient increased with temperature. Thring noted differences

between the predictions of his models and those of Bhattacharya and

Harrison and Vedamurthy and Sastri. In order to explain these dif-

ferences, he conducted an experimental analysis using all of these

models. After comparing the results, he concluded that the model

used makes a significant difference (on the order of a factor of

two) in the predicted value of the radiative coefficient obtained

between a fluidized bed and a heat transfer surface. However, all

models predicted the total heat transfer coefficient within a

reasonable range [16].

In 1976, Baskakov et al. conducted an experimental analysis to

determine the radiative component of heat transfer using the Stefan-

Boltzmann equation. Their analysis studied the cooling effect which

a surface such as a radiometer probe had on the particles which came

into contact with it. This emissivity was lower than the actual

emissivity of the bed, and to account for this, they used the temp-

erature of the core of the bed to represent the temperature of the

12

A I

Page 28: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

radiating particles. They concluded that total heat transfer could

be determined by addition of the conduction-convection and radia-

tion components. Their results further showed that the cooling of

particles at the radiometer surface did have a significant effect

on the radiative heat transfer component [3].

In 1978, Basu studied the effect of the combustion of coal on

heat transfer to a surface immersed in a fluidized bed and the con-

tribution made by radiation to the overall heat transfer. He used

a theoretical method based on the single particle model to predict

the effect of combustion. This model concentrates on single par-

ticles which are swept to the heat transfer surface and return back

to the bed after a brief period of heat exchange with the wall. To

determine the radiative component and the total heat transfer, Basu

used two identical copper tubes positioned at identical locations

within a fluidized bed of sand and pulverized coal. The tube used

to measure the radiative heat transfer was covered with a coaxial

transparent silica tube to minimize conduction and make radiation

the primary mode of heat transfer. The other plain tube measured

the total heat transfer. The total heat transfer coefficient was

found to increase with increasing carbon content in the bed except

when the carbon particles were much larger than the inert bed ma-

terial. Also, the radiation heat flux was found to be 5 to 10 per-

cent of the total heat flux for bed temperatures of 800 to 900'C [4].

Kolar et al., in 1979, used the alternate slab method of Gabor

to examine the radiative component of heat transfer in a high

13

Page 29: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

temperature fluidized bed. The alternate slab method assumes that

the bed is composed of alternate vertical slabs of gas and solids.

The bed and heat transfer surfaces are assumed to be gray bodies,

and the gas is radiatively transparent. The temperatures of succes-

sive slabs are then calculated starting at the heat transfer sur-

face. Calculations at an individual time step continue through

successive slabs until the temperature differs from the core bed

temperature by a very small amount. The radiative and total heat

transfer coefficients can then be determined. After comparing the

results of this model with previous studies and experimental results,

Kolar et al. concluded that the alternate slab method generally over-

estimated the radiation component and the average heat transfer coef-

ficients but within reasonable limits and agreed very well at high

bed and heat transfer surface temperatures. They further concluded

that the radiative percentage of total heat transfer was signifi-

cant for large particle diameters and high heat transfer surface and

bed temperatures. The radiative component varied directly with these

values but was found to be more sensitive to the surface temperature

than the bed temperature [11].

In summi~ary, it is apparent that the uncertainty about the rel-

ative importance of radiation in high temperature fluidized beds

still exists, although most of the later studies indicate that the

contribution of the radiative component is significant. The value

of the radiative component of the total heat heat flux does vary

appreciably for different studies. Table 1 summarizes the results

14

Page 30: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

of some of these studies. The major differences are the result of

the experimental method or theoretical model used in the analysis.

There are three basic categories of theoretical models used in cal-

culating the radiative heat transfer component. The first assumes

black body radiation from the bed. The second category calculates

the radiation between the phases (emulsion-void) and the heat ex-

changer surface, while the third considers the radiation exchange

between a single particle and the heat exchanger surface. Since in

the first category, radiation is treated separately from conduction,

it is difficult to determine the relative importance of radiation.

For the two other categories, solutions are difficult to obtain

unless critical assumptions are made and, of course, the final re-

sults are dependent upon the validity of the assumption. Experi-

mental studies also have difficult problems to resolve, such as the

degree to which the surface temperature of the probe or the emissiv-

ity of the heat transfer surface affects the radiation component of

total heat flux. Also the nonadditive nature of the radiative and

conductive components of heat transfer has not been treated consis-

tently. The mechanism of heat transfer in high temperature fluidized

beds requires much additional experimental and theoretical work before

it can be fully understood.

This study will investigate only one aspect of this heat

transfer mechanism. It will attempt to determine the effect of

particle size on the radiative component of heat transfer in fluid-

ized beds.

4. EXPERIMENTAL METHOD

A. Experimental Analysis

There are basically two methods used to determine the radiative

component of heat transfer in high temperature fluidized beds. One

of these methods employs small spherical metal probes with different

surface emissivities. Essentially, the difference in heat transfer

between a black surface and a white one is considered to be the rad-

iative component. The major disadvantages of this method can be

summarized as follows:

1. Emissivity of a surface is difficult to determine and

is usually a function of temperature. Even if it is

determined accurately, the scoring action of the par-

ticles changes the emissivity, usually causing it to

increase.

2. The surface temperatures of the small spherical probes

submerged in the bed continuously rise during the ex-

periment, thus reducing the net radiation by increasing

re-radiation. Due to this phenomenon, the ronductivity

of the gas increases simultaneously with the probe

temperature, and hence the total heat transfer coeffic-

ient also increases. As a result, experiments which

use these types of probes obtain low percentages of

radiation, as shown in Table 1.[

The other method used to measure the radiation component employs

17

Page 33: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

a transparent surface and a sensor to detect the radiation. The

major disadvantages of this radiometer method are:

1. Most of the probes used previously have not been

cooled properly. Baskakov and Goldobin investigated

the experimental results of Il'chenko et al. who had

used a probe of this kind. Calculations for the con-

ditions of the experiments showed that the temperature

at the center of the glass virtually did not differ

from the bed temperature. They concluded that what

had been determined in these experiments was not the

radiant component of heat transfer but the total

radiation of the bed since no reduction in the temp-

erature of the particles had occurred at the glass

surface. Experiments using this type of probe such4

as those of Il'chenko et al. and Botterill et al.

predict high percentages of radiation as shown in

Table 1.

2. In radiometer probes, quartz windows have been used to

transmit the radiation onto the sensor. The trans-

mittance band for quartz is approximately 0.15 to 3.5

p~m. In this band range only a small portion of the

radiation is transmitted. The percentage of transmis-

sion through a quartz window for radiation from a black

body source is shown in Figure 1 as a function of source

temperature. Less than 50 percent of the radiation will

18

Page 34: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

be transmitted for a bed temperature of 1100*K, assum-

ing a transmittance of one for the window. As a re-

sult, the sensitivity and accuracy of the probe are

limited.

3. Another disadvantage of the quartz window is its low

thermal conductivity. Due to this lower conductivity

and the thinness of the windows used in previous ex-

periments, the center temperatures of the windows were

high because of poor cooling from the sides.

The radiometer probe method is selected for use in this study.

The disadvantages of this method are eliminated by proper cooling

of the window and choosing a window material with a long range of

transmittance and a high thermal conductivity. Also by designing

a probe with a special geometry, both the radiation component and

the total heat transfer are measured simultaneously at the same

location in the bed.

B. Description of the Probe

A radiometer probe is designed to measure the radiative and

total heat flux inside a fluidized bed. A detailed drawing of the

probe used in this study is shown in Figure 2. The face of the

probe is made oil a copper ring with a radiatively transparent window

at the center. The rest of the probe is made of brass.

Selection of the window material is dependent upon the temper-

ature it will be exposed to and also on its transmittance in the

19

Page 35: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

temperature range of the experiments. The monochromatic emissivity

of a black body as a function of wavelength and temperature is given

by Planck as:

E C 5

C(1)

XTe

where

X = wavelength, Pm

T = temperature, OK

C1 = 3.743 x 108 Wim4/M2

C2 = 1.4387 x 104 pm°K

A plot of EbA as a function of wavelength and temperature is given

in Figure 3. It can be seen that at high temperatures most of the

radiation is concentrated in the short wavelength band and at low

temperatures in the long wavelength band.

Total emittance for each temperature range can be found by

integrating the corresponding distribution curve. If we want a

material for the window which can transmit 90 percent of the total

emittance, assuming that it does not transmit the 5 percent at both

the long and the short wavelengths, we can define the range of

wavelengths required for transmittance from the window. This is

shown in Figure 4. A window which transmits radiation from 1.71

to 11.34 um is good for 11000K, but it won't transmit all the radia-

tion at 7000 K since the required transmittance there is 2.69-17.85 wm.

20

Page 36: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

A list of the materials considered for the window is given in

Table 2. Some materials are hygroscopic, some toxic, and for some

the wavelength range is not appropriate. The best suitable window

materials are Irtran 4 and 6. Irtran 4 (ZnSe) is chosen for this

study since it is commercially available.

The normal spectral transmittance of Irtran 4 is shown in Fig-

ure 5 for various thicknesses and temperatures. It is seen that

Irtran 4 transmits radiation between 0.5 and 20 pm which is good

for the entire range of the hot bed experiments. This is a major

advantage of the zinc selenide window over the quartz window which

only transmits a small part of the radiation.

Another advantage of the zinc selenide window is its high

thermal conductivity (k =13 W/m°K at 54°C) which is approximately

nine times that of quartz (k: 1.4 W/m°K). Thus the cooling of the

window will be more effective, and a more uniform temperature distri-

bution will be obtained. This in turn, eliminates the problems

associated with poorly cooled windows as discussed previously.

Two zinc selenide windows are used in the probe as shown in

Figure 2. They have a diameter of 25.4 mm and a thickness of 3.0 mm.

The window inside the probe is used as a cover for the cavity which

includes the heat flow transducer. Coolant air comes from one side

of the probe in a 6.35 mm O.D. tube, passes between the zinc selenide

windows, and exits on the other side in another 6.35 mm tube.

The heat flow transducer is 19 mm in diameter and 2 mm thick.

It functions according to the theory and principle of a simple

thermopile. An instrument operating on these principles provides a

direct readout in millivolts proportional to the heat flux. The

transducer consists of an insulating wafer with a series of thermo-

couples consisting of thermoelement combinations such that consec-

utive thermoelectric junctions fall on opposite sides of the wafer.

This assembly is bonded to a heat sink to assure heat flow through

the sensor. Heat is received on the exposed surface of the wafer

and conducted through to the heat sink. Thus a temperature drop is

developed across the wafer and is measured directly by each junction

combination embodied along the wafer. Since the differential thermo-

couples are connected electrically in series, the voltages produced

by each set of junctions are additive, thereby amplifying the sig-

nal in direct proportion to the number of junctions. The temper-

ature drop across the wafer, and thus the output signal, is directly

proportional to the heat flux. ith the proper choice of materials,

behavior of the sensor is such that a linear relationship is ob-

tained between the heat flux and the thermopile output over the

normal operating temperature range of the thermopile (-45'C to 200'C).

A thermocouple is attached to the thermopile to assure that the temp-

erature does not exceed the operating limits.

Coolant water enters the radiometer, probe throuch a 6.35 M

copper tube, fills a small cylindrical holp, then qoes through four

2.38 nm channels to a cylindrical annulus, and then lpaves the probe

through another copper tube. -he thprmovil ,it, on .i :m rii thick

water acts as a heat sink for the thermopile, and a heat balance

on the coolant water and air gives the total heat flux from the

bed to the probe. The radiation heat flux is measured from the

output of the thermopile after it has been properly calibrated.

C. Description of the Hot Bed Facility

A detailed drawing of the hot bed facility is shown in Figure

6. The high bed temperatures required for this experiment are

achieved by burning Number 2 fuel oil in a combustion chamber before

the bed. The hot gases coming from the combustion chamber (3), go

through the distributor plate (5), through the bed (6), and then

are either sent directly to the atmosphere (11) or go to a quench

box (8), cycylone (9), and through a fan (10) to the atmosphere (12)

depending upon the amount of particles present in the gases.

The major components of the hot bed facility are described

below:

No. on Fig. 6

1 Air Supply: Compressed air is supplied from two

compressors, each with a capacity of 850 m3/hr at

6 bars of pressure.

2 Fuel Supply: Number 2 fuel oil is pumped to the

facility from a storage tank outside the building.

The pump which delivers the fuel oil to the com-

bustion chamber has a capacity of 35 '/hr.

24

Page 40: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

3 Combustion Chamber: The combustion chamber

has an outside diameter of 50.8 cm and a

10.16 cm Lite-wate-35 refractory lining. It

is equipped with an excess air burner, ignition

transformer, and flame detector to provide safe

combustion.

4 Hot Gas Plenum: The outside diameter of the

plenum is 76.2 cm with 5.08 cm of mineral fibre

block insulation and 10.16 cm of Lite-wate 35

refractory lining.

5 Distributor Plate: The distributor plate is

made of sixty 1.27 cm stainless steel bolts

bolted on a 1.90 cm thick stainless steel plate

in a hexagonal pattern. The hot gases coming

from the combustion chamber pass through a

6.35 mmn concentric blind hole in the stem of

the bolt and then go t o the bed through three

4.76 mmr horizontal radial holes, 120 degrees

apart in the head of the bolt.

6 Test Section: The outside diameter of the test

section is 76.2 cm and the inside diameter is

45.7 cm. The test section has the same type

refractory as the gas plenum. It has two doors

and five 7.62 cm diameter pipes which provide

access for instruntEntation and maintenance. The

25

Page 41: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

test section is 304.8 cm in height measured

from the distributor plate to the inlet of

the quench box.

7 Discharge Section: The discharge section has

the same diameter as the test section. There

is a cap on top of the section for discharging

the hot gases to the atmosphere if the temper-

ature inside the quench box should exceed

3150 C.

8 Quench Box: Two nozzles inside the quench box

spray cooling water on the hot gases. The quench

box is lined with refractory and can handle temp-

eratures up to 315'C.

9 Cyclone: The cyclone is used to remove any par-

ticles contained in the hot gases before the

gases are discharged to the atmosphere.

10 Fan: A special fan is installed for high temp-

erature operation to induce forced draft. It

is designed to operate at temperatures up to

315 0C.

A control panel provides instrumentation and adjustment devices

to monitor and control the gas temperatures and pressure in the

plenum and the temperature in the quench box. A schematic diagram

of the control panel and the air and fuel lines is shown in Figure 7.

26

Page 42: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

The total air flow rate is measured by a hotwire probe mounted

on a venturimeter. The linear output which is proportional to the

flow rate is fed to a datalogger along with the rest of the thermo-

couples.

D. Calibration of the Probe

The radiometer probe is calibrated using an ideal black body

so that when it is placed in the fluidized bed, the amount of radi-

ant heat flux incident on the probe face at the various bed temper-

atures can be measured.

First, a flat copper plate covered with candleblack is used

as the ideal black surface. A thermocouple attached to the surface

of the plate measures its temperature. Results using this method

prove to be inconsistent. The higher temperatures used in the cali-

bration (500 to 800'C) cause the copper plate to oxidize, removinq

the candleblack surface and thus reducing both the emissivity of the

plate and the radiation heat flux.

A cavity made from copper (Figure 8) is used to correct the

problem caused by oxidation and to provide a thermal emittance closer

to one. The actual emissivity of the cavity is calculated to be

0.991. The cavity is fastened together using brass screws and has

a thermocouple mounted at the center of each interior face.

During calibration, the cavity is placed inside an oven and is

heated to a temperature of 8000C. The probe is placed as close to

the front of the cavity as possible without touching it, and the

27

Page 43: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

probe window is centered on the cavity opening. The temperature

variation of the interior faces is on the order of 10 to 150C from

the average temperature of all faces at a given data point. The

coolant water and coolant air for the probe are turned on for the

calibration so that conditions are similar to those which occur

when the probe is placed in the hot fluidized bed.

The electromotive force (emf) readings of the thermopile and

the corresponding temperature of the cavity are recorded for temp-

eratures from 100"C to 8001C. Using the temperature of the back

face, the ideal black body radiation heat flux of the cavity is

calculated from the Stefan-Boltzmann equation. Then a best curve

fit of the emf readings versus black body radiation heat flux is

determined. This best curve fit is linear, as shown in Figure 9,

and the calibration is of the form:

qr=C - E f (2)

When the probe is placed in the fluidized bed and the radiation

heat flux is determined using this relationship, the radiation flux

measured is greater than that anticipated for low temperatures and,

in some cases, is greater than that for an ideal black body at the

same temperature. For corresponding bed and black body temperature

readings, the emf readings of the probe in the bed are consistently

larger than those obtained during calibration. The temperatures of

the window and the copper face during calibration are significantly

cooler than when the probe is placed in the hot bed. Therefore, to

28

Page 44: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

calibrate the probe for use in the hot bed, the additional radiant

heat flux incident on the thermopile due to the higher window and

copper face temperatures and the higher brass body temperature must

be accounted for. Test runs using the probe with the solid copper

face (Figure 10) are utilized to determine the effect of these

higher temperatures on the thermopile reading. Since there is no

window, the copper face and the brass body surrounding the thermo-

pile are the only sources of radiation. When these are considered,

the emf readings should be approximately zero for calibration of

the thermopile to no-radiation conditions.

For different bed and copper surface temperatures, the addi-

tional emf output due to the higher temperatures of the copper face

and the brass body of the probe is found to be:

aTAEadd - T+ 2.0 (3)

where C is defined by equation (2)

The first term in equation (3) is the emf increase due to the in-

crease in the temperature of the copper face and the second term

accounts for the emf increase due to the increase in temperature

of the probe body.

The final calibration for the probe with the zinc selenide

window is:

Ef = E - AE

29

Page 45: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

Ef = E C 2.0 (4)

f C

where Tswd is the surface temperature of the window, E is the emf

output of the thermopile and Ef is the corrected emf output which

will be used in equation (2) to calculate the radiative heat flux.

In the test runs with the solid copper face, resulting values

of Ef are in the range of -0.9 to +0.9 millivolts for bed temper-

atures of 530 to 770 0C and copper face temperatures of 100 to 1400 C.

This produces an error of zero to four percent in values of q r for

both particle types tested.

E. Heat Balance on the Probe

A heat balance is made on the probe to determine the total heat

transferred to it. The inlet and outlet temperatures of the coolant

air and coolant water for the probe are measured by thermocouples

and the volumetric flow rates of each are measured by flowmeters.

The specific heats, densities, and mass flow rates of the air and

water for these conditions are then determined, and the heat trans-

ferred to each is calculated as follows:

for air: qa = aCPa (Tao - Tai ) (5)

for water: qw = mwCpw (Tw - Twi) (6)

The side of the probe is insulated with fiberfrax insulation

and is enclosed within a stainless steel cylinder. Possible heat

30

Page 46: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

gain through the side of the probe must be determined. The overall

heat transfer coefficient for the side of the probe is:

UF A n £n (7r-)ins £n(i )brlo (h )+ AO ( U + o +- (7)

A h L kins + kbr 1 0

with the dimensions and material properties given in Figure 11.

The heat transfer coefficient for the outside surface ho is assumed

to be approximately equal to that for the copper surface of the

probe face:

qa + q w= A(Tb Tw) (8)

where A : 28.581 cm2 is the surface area of the whole probe face.

Calculation of the heat transfer coefficient for the interior sur-

face hi is based upon the laminar flow of the coolant water within

the water outlet tube:

hid hNu - = 4.364 [7]

kw

and

4.364khi dh (9)

where kw is the conductivity of the coolant water determined at its

average temperature (T wi+T wo)/2, and dh 9 .6 mm is the hydraulic

diameter of the tube. The total heat gained through the side of

the probe due to conduction and convection is:

qg = A0U (Tb- Tw) (10)

where qg is on the order of 6-8 percent o"' the total heat gained

by the probe for the SP-1 particles and 7.5-9 percent for the SP-2

particles.

Now the total heat gained only from the probe face can be

found:

qt = q + qw - qg (11)

The total heat flux incident of the probe face is equal to qt/A.

When the probe is placed inside the hot fluidized bed, approximately

3.175 nn of the insulation is blown ,way, exposing the side edge of

the copper face. The total heat flux is adjusted to account for

heat gained through this additional surface area AS ' Therefore,

the total heat heat flux becomes qt/(A+As).

F. Properties of the Sand Particles

Size Analysis

Two sizes of silica sand particles are used in this study.

A sieve analysis is conducted on a 2000 gram samole of each particle

type both prior to firing in the fluidized bed and upon completion

of the test. The weight mein particle diameter is determined using

the relation:

32

Page 48: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

(12)p (pi

dpi

where x is the weight fraction of the particles in each size inter-

val within the sample, and dPi is the average particle diameter for

each size interval [12].

Figure 12 shows the size distribution and average particle

diameter of the small particles (SP-1) prior to firing. The size

distribution after firing has a similar profile with a mean par-

ticle diameter of 733 pm. The SP-1 particles are spherical in

shape and are processed such that the majority of particles lie

in a narrow size range as shown in Figure 12.

The size distribution and average particle diameter of the

larger particles (SP-2) prior to firing are shown in Figure 13.

On completion of testing, a similar size distribution exists with

a mean particle diameter of 1030 pm. The SP-2 particles are sub-

angular in shape. Spherical silica sand particles are not avail-

able in this large size range. These particles ar- well-graded

having a wide distribution of sizes within the range shown in

Figure 13.

The minimum fluidization velocities of both particle types

measured in a cold fluidized bed with a cross sectional area of

62.1 cm2 are:

Type SP-1: Vmf 0.365 m/sec

Type SP-2: Vmf 0.682 m/sec

The other physical properties are the same for both types of

silica sand. These include:

density: p = 2650 kg/m 3

conductivity: k = 1.87 W/m°K

specific heat: Cp = 845 J/kg°K

G. Collection of Data

Six sets of test data are recorded for use in the analysis

and determination of final results. Four are compiled using the

probe with the zinc selenide window; three with the SP-1 particles

and one with the SP-2 particles. The two final sets, one for each

particle type, are made using the probe with the solid copper face

as shown in Figure 10.

The probe is placed in the test section as shown in Figure 14

with its face 12.7 cm from the side of the bed. The particles are

then put into the test section, and the static bed height is meas-

ured. The static bed height for all test runs in this study is

47.5 cm. The coolant air and coolant water to the probe are turned

on before igniting the bed, and their flow rates are recorded. The

bed is then fluidized and combustion initiated. The temperature of

34

Page 50: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

the bed and the rate at which the bed temperature increases are

controlled by the fuel-air mixture supplied to the combustion

chamber. The total air flow rate is now recorded along with the

pressure drop within the combustion chamber and the pressure drops

at three locations within the fluidized bed; 2.5, 29.0, and 59.0

cm above the distributor plate. Additional pressure drop readings

are taken anytime the total air flow into the combustion chamber

and fluidized bed is varied.

The datalogger is used to record temperature and emf readings

at critical locations in the test setup. These include: the bed

temperatures 18.6 and 20.3 cm above the distributor plate, the

inlet temperature of air supplied to the combustion chamber, the

temperature inside the combustion chamber; and inside the probe:

the temperature of the copper face, the window temperature, the

inlet and outlet temperatures of both the coolant air and the

coolant water, and the thermopile emf output. These readings are

recorded at regular two or four minute intervals throughout the

test run. Additional readings are also taken at critical points

by activating the manual record mechanism of the datalogger.

The bed temperature is normally allowed to increase at a

steady rate, but is held constant at selected temperatures (norm-

ally 500 to 700'C at 50 degree intervals) to record steady state

readings. While holding the bed temperature constant, the air

flow to the bed is varied to determine its effect on probe readings.

The maximum bed temperature reading is 760'C.

Detailed results of the experiments "or tne 'P-1 and SP-,

particles are recorded in Tables 3 dnd 4 for the probe with the

zinc selenide window and in Tables 5 and 6 for the probe with the

solid copper face.

5. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

The SP-1 and SP-2 particles are both analyzed under similar

conditions. The data from six separate test runs which is used in

the following analysis is compiled as discussed in Section 4.G,

Collection of Data. The data is taken for bed temperatures Tb of

200 to 760 0C with values of 35 to 155 0C for Tw and 30 to 220'C for

Twd. The range of fluidizing velocities used is 0.57 to 3.11 m/sec

for the SP-1 particles and 1.50 to 4.83 m/sec for the SP-2 particles.

The detailed data for all test runs is recorded in Tables 3 through

6.

The effects of particle size on radiation heat flux qr, per-

centage of total heat flux due to radiation, total heat transfer

coefficient ht, radiative heat transfer coefficient hr, and bed

emissivity are now studied.

A. Radiation Heat Flux

The radiation heat flux is calculated using equation (2) with

Ef determined from equation (4). Figures 15 and 16 show the radia-

tion heat flux at all bed temperatures and fluidizing velocities

for the SP-1 and SP-2 particles, respectively. The radiation heat

velocity is increased. Figures 23 and 24 at constant bed temper-

atures of 697'C and 751'C illustrate this. This phenomenon can be

explained by the packet model of heat transfer in fluidized beds.

When the bed velocity is increased, the probe face is exposed to

more bubbles. While the total heat transferred to the probe face

decreases, the amount t isferred by radiation through the bubbles

increases, accounting for the increase in percent radiation. This

trend was not apparent in the larger SP-2 particles where at a

constant bed temperature for all fluidizing velocities, the percent

radiation appears to remain constant. This is shown in Figure 25

at a bed temperature of 6000C.

It is not very meaningful to compare the percentages of total

heat flux due to radiation found in this study with the results of

other reports due to the differing methods used to determine the

radiative component and the different sizes and types of particles

used. This study, as discussed in Section 4.A, Experimental Anal-

ysis, attempted to correct procedural and analytical shortcomings

noted in previous investigations. In general , the values of 20 to

30 percent for percentage of total heat flux due to radiation found

in this study are midway between the extremes found by previous

analyses (see Table 1).

C. Total Heat Transfer Coefficient ht

The total heat transfer coefficient is determined from the

relation:

39

Page 55: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

q thT (13)

'b w

It increases St. ually with increasing bed temperatures for both

particle types. The total heat transfer coefficient for the smal-

ler SP-1 particles (Figure 26) is larger than that for the SP-2

parcicles (Figure 27) for all bed temperatures. The sand particles

have a large heat capacity and the heat transfer takes place pri-

marily at the contact points of the particles with the probe sur-

face. Since the smaller particles have a larger number of contact

points per unit of surface area, they produce a larger total heat

flux and thus have a larger ht.

The increase of ht with bed temperature is more clearly illus-

trated with data taken at a constant fluidizing velocity. Figure

28 at V = 1.26 m/sec and Figure 29 at V= 2.0 m/sec for the SP-1 par-

ticles show that at constant fluidizing velocity ht increases with

increasing bed temperature. The same result is shown in Figures 30

and 31 at V= 2.5 and 3.9 m/sec for the SP-2 particles.

The total heat transfer coefficient decreases very slightly as

the excess velocity (V-Vmf) is increased for the SP-1 particles.

Figure 32 which contains data taken at all bed temperatures for

varying fluidizing velocities illustrates this. This can be ex-

plained using the packet model. Increasing the fluidizing velocity

also increases the number of bubbles. When the probe face is ex-

posed to more bubbles, the radiative heat flux increases while the

amount of time that the probe face is exposed to the emulsion phase

40

Page 56: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

decreases. However, most of the total heat transfer occurs through

the conductive-convective mechanism during contact with the emul-

sion phase. Therefore the conductive-convective component de-

creases with increasing fluidizing velocity, and, in turn, the

total heat transfer coefficient also decreases. This same trend

is not as readily apparent in the data taken for the SP-2 particles

(Figure 33) where the total heat transfer coefficient seems to

remain relatively constant for all velocities used in this study.

The relationship discussed in the preceding paragraph is more

readily visible when comparing ht to the fluidizing velocity at a

constant bed temperature. Figures 34 and 35 for bed temperatures

of 610 and 751C for the SP-1 particles show the decrease in ht

with increasing fluidizing velocity. At constant .ed temperatures,

it becomes apparent that ht also decreases with increasing fluid-

izing velocity for the SP-2 particles, which was not apparent in

Figure 33 for all data. Figures 36 and 37 for bed temperatures of

600 and 7551C illustrate a gradual decrease in ht for the SP-2

particles.

The total heat transfer coefficient at a bed temperature of

750 0C is approximately 350 W/m2 °C for the SP-1 particles (733 pm)

and 260 W/m2°C for the SP-2 particles (1030 im). The decrease in

ht with increasing particle size and the linear variation with bed

temperature noted in this study agree with the findings of

Kharchenko and Makhorin [10]. The same trend for ht noted by

Vedamurthy and Sastri [18] is seen in this study, even though their

41

Page 57: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

analysis was conducted with a particle size of 500 mrr and a bed temp-

erature range of 800 to 11000 C. The total heat transfer coeffic-

ient varies linearly in both cases and increases gradually with

bed temperature. Vedamurthy and Sastri's results yield values of

ht (225 W/m2,C at 8000C) which are smaller than those measured by

this study. Kharchenko and Makhorin [10] found ht = 300 W/m2,C for

a particle size of 710 pm and a bed temperature of 500'C. This is

equal to the value found for ht for the SP-1 particles in this

study (Figure 26). Thring's [16] packet and spherical particle

models predict ht 400 W/m2°C for a particle size of 780 Pm and

Tb =750'C as compared to the value of 350 W/m2 °C for the SP-1 par-

ticles in this study. Kolar et al. [11] predicted ht =210 W/m2,C

for 1000 pm diameter particles at Tb= 7 50'C which compares well

with the value found for the SP-2 particles in this study (Figure

27).

The variation of the total heat transfer coefficient with

fluidizing velocity as shown in Figures 34 through 37 follows the

same trend as found by Vedamurthy and Sastri and by Kolar. Both

of these studies also found that the total heat transfer coefficient,

after initially increasing with fluidizing velocity, reached a maxi-

mum value and then gradually decreased as the velocity continued to

increase.

D. Radiative Heat Transfer Coefficient

The radiative heat transfer coefficient is found using the

42

Page 58: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

relation:

hr Tb T (14)

It increases linearly with increasing bed temperature and has the

same values at all bed temperatures for both particle types tested

as shown in Figures 38 and 39. This trend is to be expected since

the radiative heat flux for both particle types is also approxi-

mately the same for all bed temperatures, as was noted in Section

5.A.

Vedamurthy and Sastri [18] noted the same trend for the radi-

ative heat transfer coefficient in their study. Extrapolating the

results of this study into their temperature range yields values of

hr on the same order as their findings. In their study, hr also

varies linearly for bed temperatures less than 9000C and has a

value of 75 to 80 W/m2°C for Tb= 8 00 0C.

E. Bed Emissivity

An apparent bed emissivity is calculated using the Stefan-

Boltzmann equation and assuming that the emissivity of the probe

face is one:

Ebed = 4 (15)b wd)

Figures 40 and 41 show the variation of bed emissivity with bed

temperature for the SP-1 and SP-2 particles, respectively. The

43

Page 59: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

bed emissivity reaches a maximum value at a bed temperature of

460°' for the SP-1 particles and 500'C for the SP-2 particles and

then begins to decrease gradually for both types. The SP-2 par-

ticles have a larger emissivity than the SP-1 particles at all

bed temperatures; however, the emissivity, in both cases, always

remains less than one. Il'chenko et al. [8] also predicted that

the bed emissivity was less than one when they found their experi-

mental values for radiative heat flux were less than the calcu-

lated black body values. Thring [16] and Vedamurthy and Sastri

[18], on the other hand, assumed that the bed emissivity was very

close to that of a black body and used Ebed = 1 in their analyses.

The experimental results of this study support Il'chenko's predic-

tion.

F. Error Analysis

The accuracy of the results obtained in this study is deter-

mined by calculating the standard deviation from the mean for each

of the following parameters: radiation heat flux, percentage of

the total heat flux due to radiation, total heat transfer coeffic-

ient and radiative heat transfer coefficien*. Two data points at

the same fluidizing velocity and bed temperature are found and then

the mean value of the parameter and the standard deviation are

calculated. This procedure is repeated for several combinations

of bed temperature and fluidizing velocity for each parameter. The

largest deviation and the average deviation from the mean for each

44

Page 60: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

parameter for each particle type are determined. The following

results are obtained:

The datalogger used to record temperature and emf readings at

critical points in the test setup rounds off readings to the near-

est tenth producing a maximum error of 0.05'C or 0.05 mv. This

accuracy in reading the emf output of the thermopile results in

a maximum error of 90 W/m2 for qr'

The flowmeters used to measure the flow of the coolant air

and water to the probe have a + 2.0 percent accuracy and the K-type

thermocouples used are accurate to within + 2.2C.

6. CONCLUSIONS

The radiation heat flux, percentage of total heat flux due to

radiation, total heat transfer coefficient, radiative heat transfer

45

Page 61: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

coefficient, and bed emissivity for two sizes of silica sand par-

ticles are studied in order to determine the effect of particle

size on the radiative component of heat transfer in high temper-

ature fluidized beds.

Radiation is found to be a significant part of the overall

heat transfer process in high temperature fluidized beds. For

both particle sizes tested, the radiative component becomes sig-

nificant for bed temperatures greater than 400'C. This study

defines "significant" to mean at least 10 percent of the total

heat flux. The percentage of total heat transfer due to radiation

for the large -articles is greater than that for the small par-

ticles at all bed temperatures. Therefore, the radiative compon-

ent of total heat transfer becomes significant at lower bed temp-

eratures for the large particles. At a bed temperature of 750'C,

the radiative component is 30 percent of the total heat flux for

the larger SP-2 particles and 20 percent for the SP-1 particles.

While the percentage of total heat transfer due to radiation

varies with particle size, the absolute quantity of radiant heat

flux does not. The radiation heat flux is found to be approxi-

mately the same for both particle sizes tested at all bed temper-

atures.

The total heat transfer coefficient increases gradually with

increasing bed temperature for both particle types. After initially

increasing with fluidizing velocity, ht reaches a maximum valup and

then slowly decreases as the velocity continues to increase. The

46

Page 62: THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE SIZE ON RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER … · the effect of particle size on radiative heat transfer in high -etc(u) may al t r frankenfield unclassified nl

radiative heat transfer coefficient increases linearly with bed

temperature and is independent of particle size, having the same

value for both particle types at all bed temperatures.

The bed emissivity increases with bed temperature and after

reaching a maximum value slowly decreases for both particle types.

The larger particles have a higher emissivity than the small par-

ticles at all bed temperatures; however, the emissivity for both

particle types remains in the 0.7 to 0.8 range at high temperatures.

The significant contribution that radiative heat transfer

makes in the overall heat transfer process in high temperature

fluidized beds cannot be neglected. Analytical models for heat

transfer in high temperature fluidized bed combustors must include

not only the conduction-convection mechanism but the radiation

mechanism as well.

This study has determined the significance of radiation in

high temperature fluidized beds using only two sizes of silica

sand particles. Future studies should investigate the effect other

size particles would have on radiation, particularly much larger

sizes (3000 Pm). Different types of materials such as silicon

carbide, fused magnesite, corundum, etc. could also be used to

determine their effect on the radiative component. A high temper-

ature fluidized bed in which coal is actually being combusted could

also be analyzed to determine the effect carbon particles have on

radiation.
