Question: 1 3 . Trickle Bed Reactors: A trickle bed reactor operates with a liquid superficial velocity of 0 . 0 1 m / s and

13. Trickle Bed Reactors: A trickle bed reactor operates with a liquid superficial velocity of 0.01 m/s and a gas superficial velocity of 0.5 m/s. Calculate the pressure drop across a 1 m section of the bed.
14. Flow Regime Identification: Given a pipe with an internal diameter of 50 mm carrying a gas-liquid flow at superficial velocities of 1 m/s for gas and 0.1 m/s for liquid, identify the flow regime using the Baker chart.
15. Pressure Drop in Three-Phase Flow: For a 10 m long horizontal pipe with a diameter of 200 mm carrying a three-phase flow (gas, liquid, solid) with phase velocities of 2 m/s,0.5 m/s, and 0.05 m/s respectively, estimate the total pressure drop.
16. Volume Fraction Estimation in Packed Beds: With a packed bed containing spheres of diameter 10 mm at a bed porosity of 0.4, calculate the volume fraction of the solid phase.
