...Jianrong Wang; Siamack A. Shirazi, Professor, A model for predicting sand erosion in 90 degree elbows and bends has been developed based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD), particle tracking and erosion data. After the flow field was obtained from the flow (CFD) model, particles were introduced...

...Qiao He; Franz Winter; Ji-Dong Lu A general numerical model is presented here to describe the complex fluid dynamics and the heat transfer process in high-temperature circulating fluidized beds (CFBs). The core-wall concept is used to describe the gas-solid flow in the dilute phase section of CFBs...

...Jeremy K. Edwards; Brenton S. McLaury; Siamack A. Shirazi Predicted erosion patterns on the surface of a pipe fitting can now be obtained using a technique implemented into a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code. This comprehensive erosion prediction procedure consists of 1) generation of a flow...
