The magnetic particle tracking system
Tracer particles are constructed over a tiny neodymium magnet core
Magnet is Imbedded in a bead, foamed or coated
Tracer particles used are >1 mm diameter, 0.4-7 g/cc
•Single tracer particles are injected into bed
•Magnetic field signals recorded for analysis
•Special algorithms deconvolute signals to give 3D trajectory data

Information we get from MPTS 3D trajectory data
– Visualize tracer motion Position versus time graphs (i.e. Z or R vs time) Short time 3D vector plots: particular types of events 2D projections
– Visualize average location “Dot cloud” plots of data
– 3D clouds or 2D slices
– Quantify spatial information Frequency distributions Fit to statistical models for use in process model
– Quantify temporal information Autocorrelation analysis to yield characteristic times FFT for highly periodic processes

• Test conditions- 5.5 cm diameter bed- Porous plate distributor- 175 to 250 micron glass beads- 2.5 Umf (~15 cm/sec)- Slumped bed L/D =1- 0.76 g/cc 4 mm tracer- Sampling rate was 100 Hertz- Run time was 5 minutes- 5 replicate tests performed
• Data representations and analysis

Vertical position vs time – 30 sec
![Page 9: Magnetic Particle Tracking in Spouting and Bubbling Fluidized Beds Jack Halow Separation Design Group Stuart Daw Oak Ridge National Laboratory Presented](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649ed85503460f94be6d7e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
3D views of three tests “Dot clouds” give average temporal representations
But replicates not directly comparable

Statistical comparisons are better
Direct one to one comparisons not viable– Overall conditions same but detailed dynamics
depend on detailed local initial conditions which are never identical
Spatial statistical comparison– Compare frequency distributions - probability of
spatial location
Temporal statistical comparison– Compare autocorrelation curves at various time
lags - characteristic cycle times
![Page 11: Magnetic Particle Tracking in Spouting and Bubbling Fluidized Beds Jack Halow Separation Design Group Stuart Daw Oak Ridge National Laboratory Presented](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649ed85503460f94be6d7e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Spatial comparison: frequency plots Divide vertical height into 40 bins
Place each measured z into a bin and count up each bin
Calculate normalized frequency for each bin
![Page 12: Magnetic Particle Tracking in Spouting and Bubbling Fluidized Beds Jack Halow Separation Design Group Stuart Daw Oak Ridge National Laboratory Presented](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649ed85503460f94be6d7e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Length of test is important
• Compares full tests and segments of a test• Agreement deteriorates
with shorter times•Need adequate run times
to characterize bed
300 sec
25 sec50 sec
![Page 13: Magnetic Particle Tracking in Spouting and Bubbling Fluidized Beds Jack Halow Separation Design Group Stuart Daw Oak Ridge National Laboratory Presented](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649ed85503460f94be6d7e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Temporal comparison Autocorrelation function
– Compares times series to itself as it’s shifted in time
– Periodicity shows up as peaks in the correlation coefficient
~0.8 sec cycle time
![Page 14: Magnetic Particle Tracking in Spouting and Bubbling Fluidized Beds Jack Halow Separation Design Group Stuart Daw Oak Ridge National Laboratory Presented](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649ed85503460f94be6d7e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Radial position at various levels
• Dots in ring at higher bed levels• Concentrated in center lower in bed
![Page 15: Magnetic Particle Tracking in Spouting and Bubbling Fluidized Beds Jack Halow Separation Design Group Stuart Daw Oak Ridge National Laboratory Presented](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649ed85503460f94be6d7e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Radial Frequency Distributions
• For each of the six levels:• Radial position sorted into 7 even radius bins• Points counted and normalized for each bin
![Page 16: Magnetic Particle Tracking in Spouting and Bubbling Fluidized Beds Jack Halow Separation Design Group Stuart Daw Oak Ridge National Laboratory Presented](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649ed85503460f94be6d7e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Radial position autocorrelation
• Doesn’t show significant correlation• Radial motion essentially random• Bubble position radially random
![Page 17: Magnetic Particle Tracking in Spouting and Bubbling Fluidized Beds Jack Halow Separation Design Group Stuart Daw Oak Ridge National Laboratory Presented](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649ed85503460f94be6d7e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Velocities show bubble events• 5 second segment• X & Y spikes indicate rapid lateral motion from bubbles•X & Y motion coupled with vertical motion
![Page 18: Magnetic Particle Tracking in Spouting and Bubbling Fluidized Beds Jack Halow Separation Design Group Stuart Daw Oak Ridge National Laboratory Presented](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649ed85503460f94be6d7e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Total velocity frequency distribution
•Weibull distribution gives excellent fit (CC=0.98)
![Page 19: Magnetic Particle Tracking in Spouting and Bubbling Fluidized Beds Jack Halow Separation Design Group Stuart Daw Oak Ridge National Laboratory Presented](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649ed85503460f94be6d7e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Summary Magnetic particle tracking can provide highly detailed
information about the motion of single particles (> 1mm) in fluidized beds.
Direct trajectory comparisons give qualitative information
Statistical comparisons are quantitative
Spatial frequency distributions give time averaged locations: Weibull distribution can represent vertical positions
Temporal analysis such as autocorrelation can reveal average circulation times and perhaps regime transitions
Model validations should use statistical data
Model calculations must run for minutes to be meaningful

MPTS – What is it? Tracer
– Small Neodynium magnet imbedded in particle– Tracer aligns with earth magnetic field orienting is magnetic field– Tracer density can be adjusted by choice of tracer material– Tracers diameters are 1 mm or larger– Tracer densities of from 0.4 to 7 g/cc
Sensors– Magneto-resistive type or Hall-effect– Externally mounted around bed– Orientation important for data analysis
Analysis– Special algorithms used to extract trajectory from field data– Data presentation by graphic and statistical techniques

Background and Motivation: Many processes utilize fluidized bed contactors and reactors
Turbulent multi-phase flow
High heat and mass transfer
Mixing of particles with gas, other particles key to performance
Different size and density of particles can lead to segregation
Dynamics of non-normal particles not well understood
Easy, safe inexpensive particle tracking system likely to have applications in many flow systems.
