Computational particle fluid dynamics(CPFD)numerical simulations were used to investigate the effect of particle size distribution changes on critical fluidization velocity by characterizing SiO2 particles from three different distributions i.e.,conventional bed materials in CFB boiler(Set 1),increased content of fine particles within the boiler(Set 2),and reduced particle size of initial bed support materials(Set 3).The results show that at the same bed height,the critical fluidization velocities of the Set 1,Set 2 and Set 3 bed materials are 0.51,0.30 and 0.20 m/s,respectively.The results show that increasing the fine particle content in the furnace and reducing the particle size of the initial bed support material can significantly reduce the critical fluidization velocity.Comparing the numerical simulation results of the critical fluidization velocity for wide particle size distributions with the prediction results of related correlations,the prediction results from the Ergun correlation have a small deviation,while the prediction results of the Wen-Yu correlation are significantly lower.
