Abstract

Swirling Fluidized Bed (SFB) is a system that possess a plenum chamber and distributor air gap which leading up to dispersion of the airflow to the bed. The current SFB is in contrast with conventional fluidization systems whereby the effect of multi-stage through blades inclination angle (15°) and number of blades (60) was carried out. The simulation was used to compute and assess the performance outcomes of velocity distribution in a SFB. Therefore, the present study focuses on the numerical analysis procedure on the air flow distribution impacted by annular blade distributor arrangement in a Multi-stage SFB via ANSYS Fluent before a detailed study on selected variable would be carried out. As a consequence, the findings of the primary study that have been conducted are in line with expectations formed by earlier research.
