Fluidization Engineering

About this book

Fluidization Engineering, Second Edition, expands on its original scope to encompass these new areas and introduces reactor models specifically for these contacting regimes. Completely revised and updated, it is essentially a new book. Its aim is to distill from the thousands of studies those particular developments that are pertinent for the engineer concerned with predictive methods, for the designer, and for the user and potential user of fluidized beds. - Covers the recent advances in the field of fluidization. - Presents the studies of developments necessary to the engineers, designers, and users of fluidized beds.

When 
the 
container 
is 
tipped, 
the 
upper 
surface 
of 
the 
bed 
remains 
horizontal, 
and 
when 
two 
beds 
are 
connected 
their 
levels 
equalize. 
Also, 
the 
difference 
in 
pressure 
between 
any 
two 
points 
in 
a 
bed 
is 
roughly 
equal 
to 
the 
static 
head 
of 
bed 
between 
these 
points. 
The 
bed 
also 
has 
liquidlike 
flow 
properties. 
Solids 
will 
gush 
in 
a 
jet 
from 
a 
hole 
in 
the 
side 
of 
a 
container 
and 
can 
be 
made 
to 
flow 
like 
a 
liquid 
from 
vessel 
to 
vessel. 
This 
liquidlike 
behavior 
allows 
various 
contacting 
schemes 
to 
be 
devised. 
As 
shown 
in
