This work focuses on the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation of a laboratory-scale, two-dimensional fluidized bed and the relevant experiments in order to validate the prediction capability of the adopted codes and models. Both experimental and computational quantitative data were analyzed by means of an original digital image analysis technique, allowing for coherent comparison of computational and experimental results. In particular, this work analyzes the capability of the CFD simulations in predicting the fluctuating behavior of bubbling fluidized beds by means of frequency analysis of bubble-related phenomena.
