Standpipes, or downcomers, are commonly used in fluidized beds to transport particles. The outlet structure of the downcomer greatly affects the performance of flow from it and even overall reactor performance. In this study, the hydrodynamics in commercial-scale internally circulating fluidized beds( ICFBs) with central downcomers having different...

BackgroundElectronic health (eHealth) and mobile health (mHealth) interventions have the potential to tackle the worldwide problem of physical inactivity. However, they often suffer from large attrition rates. Consequently, feasibility and acceptability of interventions have become important matters in the creation of e- and mHealth interventions. ...
