Abstract: [Display omitted] • Effect of particle size and spatial resolution in coarse-graining DEM-CFD are studied. • Bubble detection is employed to quantify the bubble size and number. • Bubble size is scaled by the model particle size. • Usage of coarse spatial resolution increases bubble size and decreases bubble number. • Model particle size and spatial resolution countervail in coarse-graining model. The discrete element method (DEM) coupled with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a powerful tool for exploring the detailed behaviors of dense particle–fluid interaction problems such as fluidized beds. Coarse-graining models have been proposed to decrease the computational cost by increasing the model particle size. In this study, we examine the influence of the model particle size and the spatial resolution on the average size and number of bubbles in coarse-graining DEM-CFD calculations of bubbling fluidized beds. Calculation results indicate that the bubble size is scaled by the model particle size if parameters are following similarity laws defined in a particle scale, as well as the geometric similarity of the whole system is maintained. The usage of coarse spatial resolution increases the bubble size and decreases the number of bubbles. The countervailing influence of the model particle size and the spatial resolution in a practical coarse-graining scenario results in nearly the same bubble size. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
