Abstract
To investigate the gas-solid flows in a circulating fluidised bed with multi-cyclone separators, a circular ECT sensor and rectangular ECT sensor are designed and used to measure the solids distribution in a cross-section in the inlet and standpipe of cyclone separator respectively. The rectangular ECT sensor has 12 electrodes with two in each shorter side and four in each longer side. The circular ECT sensor has 8 electrodes. For image reconstruction, sensitivity maps have been calculated using a simulation package, Maxwell from Ansoft. Dynamics test of CFB processes with different fluidisation velocity are given both in the inlet and downwards standpipe of the cyclone. ECT test results are given and analyzed and compared with pressure measurement results.
