Question: 2 6 . For a fluidized bed reactor with air density at 1 . 2 kg / m and particle density of 2 6 0

26. For a fluidized bed reactor with air density at 1.2 kg/m and particle density of 2600 kg/m, calculate the minimum fluidization velocity for particles of 150 m diameter, then estimate the bed height at three times the minimum fluidization velocity.
28. In a bubble column with a diameter of 1 m operating at a gas flow rate of 0.05 m/s, calculate the gas holdup for a homogeneous flow regime. Following this, estimate the average bubble diameter assuming a spherical bubble shape.
