The fluidization of quartz particles as bed materials in the fluidized bed has significant influences on the combustion and gasification of refused derived fuels. Three-dimensional (3-D) simulations and analyses are performed for Geldart B particles using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method based on the kinetic theory of granular flows (KTGF) to investigate the hydrodynamic behavior. The drag models of Syamlal-O'Brien, Gidaspow, and Wen and Yu are selected to analyze the applicability of the kinetic model. The pressure drop, velocity distribution and solid volume fraction are studied numerically when the gas inlet velocity is changed. The results show that the increase of superficial gas velocity would lead to heterogeneous expansion of solid volume fraction and velocity distributions in both the dense phase zone and free board with a similar distribution pattern. The near wall particles form a dense phase structure with the solid volume fraction being greater than 0.3.
