A Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) comparison of 3-Lump and 4-Lump kinetic models for predicting gasoline, light gases and coke yield in fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) riser
Abstract:In this study a comparison of 3-lump and 4-lump kinetic models predicting the yield of gasoline, light gases and coke in FCC riser has been done. Commercial CFD software with K-epsilon turbulence model is used to investigate the reactions occurrence between fluid and solids in a fluidized bed. An important feature of this model is that its kinetics includes partial differential equations. This provides accurate predictions of product yields in the FCC riser. In this simulation different process variables such … Show more
