摘要: The hydrodynamic behavior of gas-liquid downflow in vertical, inclined, and oscillating packed beds related to offshore floating applications was analyzed by means three-dimensional unsteady-state two-fluid simulations. Angular oscillations the column between two angled symmetrical positions vertical inclined position were considered while bed non-uniformity described using radial porosity distributions. For slightly columns, two-phase flow concentrated core area bed. However, predicted deviate significantly from axial symmetry at higher inclinations with prominent liquid accumulation bottommost reactor cross-sectional area. Oscillating unveiled complex reverse secondary flows radially circumferentially resulting oscillatory patterns holdup pressure drop whose amplitude propagation frequency affected inclination angle travel time positions. © 2015 American Institute Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 62: 916–927, 2016
