Noninvasive measurements of gas exchange in a three-dimensional fluidized bed using hyperpolarized 129Xe NMR

Tina Pavlin, Ruopeng Wang, Ryan McGorty +5

We present a novel NMR technique that provides a non-invasive, direct measurement of gas exchange in a three-dimensional gas-fluidized bed of solid particles. The NMR spectrum of h…

Using NMR to Validate First-Principles Granular Flow Equations

D. Candela, C. Huan, K. Facto +3

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments are described for two granular-flow systems, the vibrofluidized bed and the gas-fluidized bed. Using pulsed field gradient, magnetic re…

Study of Gas-Fluidization Dynamics with Laser-Polarized 129Xe

R. Wang, M. S. Rosen, D. Candela +2

We report initial NMR studies of gas dynamics in a particle bed fluidized by laser-polarized xenon (129Xe) gas. We have made preliminary measurements of two important characteristi…
