- Abstract
The knowledge of fluid–particle flow behavior is necessary. Unfortunately, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) studies are mostly focused on developing numerical methods in detail. Instead, the CFD studies should also subtly shift to become a tool for digitalizing fluid science to guide the practical industrial aspects. Therefore, this simulation study intends to reveal the air and rice husk flow behaviors in a vertical suspension furnace, complete with presenting digital simulation data, aiming to alleviate the escape particle amount. According to this study, the escaped particle amount was suppressed under more sphere particle, smaller particle size, and feed inlet pipe that sunk into the burner. The properties change from rice husk to ash, along with temperature escalation (as in combustion phenomena), enlarging the escaped particle amount, so the cyclone should be installed to handle it. In addition, the results of digital turbulent data from CFD simulation have succeeded in intriguing and revealing the fluid–particle flow behavior in the vertical suspension furnace. The data show a close match to the real phenomena occurring inside this furnace which reflects the standard k–ε model can conclusively predict fluid–particle flow behavior without conflicting Newton's second law of particle motion.
