Data driven reduced modeling for fluidized bed with immersed tubes based on PCA and Bi-LSTM neural networks

In this study, a nonintrusive reduced order modeling method, the reduced order model based on principal component analysis and bidirectional long short-term memory networks (PBLSTM ROM), was developed to capture complex spatio-temporal dynamics of fluidized beds.

By combining principal component analysis and Bidirectional long- short-term memory networks, the PBLSTM ROM effectively extracted dynamic evolution information without any prior knowledge of governing equations, enabling reduced-order modeling of unsteady flow fields. The PBLSTM ROM was validated using the solid volume fraction and gas velocity flow fields of a fluidized bed with immersed tubes, showing superior performance over both the PLSTM and PANN ROMs in accurately capturing temporal changes in the fluidization fields, especially in the region near immersed tubes where severe fluctuations appear.
