Abstract

The paper presents the (3D) CFD modelling and analysis of unsteady flow through an Aluminium refractories-bed regenerator. Aluminium refractories-bed regenerator having particle to diameter ratio (D/dp) 3, 8, 12 were used to analyse the flow complexities and thermal characteristics of the regenerator. Due to low D/dpthe void ratio near the regenerator wall is greater than in bulk region due to which there are large flow complexities in these beds. To study the detailed flow complexities within these vicinities commercial fluent software is used. The predicted results of pressure drop and wall effect were compared with the previous experimental results and a good agreement was found between them.
