Computer Simulation of the Magnetic Resonance Measurement of Flow of Fluidized Particles

Magnetic resonance velocimetry (MRV) is among the non-invasive measurement techniques for multiphase flow systems that is receiving increasing attention. MRV simulation of flow systems is a subject that has not been dealt with enough in literature, especially for time-varying multiphase flow systems. Such simulations can help in evaluating the accuracy of rapid experimental MRV techniques. This study aims to perform a MRV simulation of an incipiently fluidized bed into which two high velocity side-by-side air jets are injected. The simulation procedure starts from importing results of CFD-DEM into MR simulator and compares the results with actual prior MR measurements.
