Q36. Fluidisation A packed bed consisting of 1.96 kg of solids of density 2.8 g/cm' is contained in a cylindrical vessel
Q36. Fluidisation A packed bed consisting of 1.96 kg of solids of density 2.8 g/cm' is contained in a cylindrical vessel of 10 cm internal diameter, and the bed height is 20 cm. (1) What is the volume of the vessel occupied by the bed is (mL)? (2) What is the volume of the solids in the vessel (mL)? (3) What is the porosity of the bed? (4) The particle size is 500 um, and the liquid density and viscosity are 1000 kg/m' and 0.001 Pa's, what is the minimum fluidising velocity (m/s)? (5) Was the use of the Kozeny-Carman equation justified? (6) What type of fluidisation likely to occur?
