    • CFD analysis of thermal dispersion in a structured packed bed 

      Vermaak, H.J.; Du Toit, C.G. (SACAM, 2018)
      Packed beds are generally modelled in a partial manner to avoid computational costs. This implies that only a small portion of the representative bed is modelled explicitly in CFD simulations, usually by assuming ...
    • CFD analysis of thermal dispersion in a structured pebble bed 

      Vermaak, H.J. (North-West University, 2019)
      Heat transfer mechanisms in packed beds are not entirely understood, which gave rise to thermal dispersion correlations that contain considerable amounts of empiricism. The empiricism resulted from incorporating a limited ...
