Abstract

Abstract: The liquid-solid countercurrent fluidization process in an extraction columnwas numerically simulated based on the particle trajectorymodel of Eulerian-Lagrangianmethod. The simulation approach was validated by previous experiments. A power function correlationwas proposed for dimensionless slip velocity U_slip/U_t and hold-up fraction ϕ, and the operational zone in the countercurrent fluidizationwas determined. Simultaneous countercurrent fluidization of particles with different diameters was also simulated. The comparison shows that the simulation results are consistentwith the calculation values fromthemulti-particle free sedimentation model based on noninterference assumption, verifying the reliability of the approach in present work.

Key words: Liquid-solid countercurrent extraction, Fluidization, Numerical simulation, Particle trajectory model
