ROTATING-PULSED FLUIDIZED BED

The present work is a scientific and technical monograph to systematize for the first time the researches in theory and practice of the so-called by the author rotating-pulsed fluidized bed. The basic regularities in the hydrodynamics of the rotating-pulsed fluidized bed being introduced with an original method to describe the bed pressure drop are dealt with. The heat and mass transfer processes in drying and roasting of food, flavour and bio-products being studied in semi-industrial and industrial installations, designed and introduced into production by the author, are analyzed. The monograph is intended for engineers designing industrial installations with a fluidized bed, as well as for scientists, PhD students, and students in the relevant specialties of food engineering.
