Comparison of CFD Simulation and Experimental Data for Heating and Cooling Low N Packed Beds of Spherical Particles

This study compared experimental and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) results for heating and cooling in a packed bed (N=5.33). The experimental data was compared between heating and cooling, and was also used to validate the CFD model. The validated models were used to compare theoretical heat tr...
