Abstract
Spouted beds are excellent media for heat and mass transfer applications particularly in industrial and agricultural drying operations. The hydrodynamic behaviour of the spouting gas and the particles in the spout and annulus regions are quite complex and in order to investigate the heat and mass transfer mechanism, a good understanding of the bed hydrodynamics is a must. In this study, fundamentals of the spouted beds are given and a computer program which was developed to determine spout hydrodynamics is explained. Mickley-Fairbanks’ Packet theory was adopted for the bed to wall heat transfer mechanism in the annulus region. Other numerical solutions which are available in the literature are also cited. In the last section, theory of mass transfer with main emphasis to drying is provided.
