✦ Synopsis

Experiments indicate that at a fixed superficial gas velocity, defluidization, as a result of massive agglomeration of the particles in a fluidized bed, occurs sharply when the bed temperature reaches a certain value. At a given temperature, the defluidization velocity is defined to be the minimum superficial gas velocity needed to avoid defluidization. In this report, an estimate of the defluidization velocity is developed using a two-particle collision model and a model for the granular energy of the bed. Using the available data on the material properties of coal ash as a function of temperature, the defluidization velocity is expressed as a function of bed temperature and particle and gas properties. A comparison with experimental data is made, and a simplified formula suitable for correlation studies is suggested.

## Abstract The behavior of SiO~2~ nanoparticles and the effects of operating conditions on nanoparticle agglomerate sizes have been investigated under conditions created in a vibro‐fluidized bed (VFB). The experimental results reveal that the vibrations imposed in the bed can suppress slugging and

The defluidization behaviour of ash derived from Indian coal by combustion in a fluidized bed has been studied. Sintering temperatures for ash in several ranges of particle size were measured with a dilatometer. In agreement with the earlier work on other coals it was found that above the sintering
