This text has been used in the form of class notes taught to graduate and senior undergraduate students in chemical and mechanical engineering for the last three decades. The authors illustrate how their code as well as the commercial codes can be used for the design of green energy technology processes.

This book is for engineers and students to solve issues concerning the fluidized bed systems. It presents an analysis that focuses directly on the problem of predicting the fluid dynamic behavior which empirical data is limited or unavailable. The second objective is to provide a treatment of computational fluidization dynamics that is readily accessible to the non-specialist. The approach adopted in this book, starting with the formulation of predictive expressions for the basic conservation equations for mass and momentum using kinetic theory of granular flow. The analyses presented in this...
