A new homogeneity index is proposed to characterize the fluidization quality of non-slugging fluidized beds of Geldart A particles. The definition of this homogeneity index is based on the comparison of bed expansion between the normal operating condition and an ideal homogeneously fluidized conditi

## Abstract Ternary mixtures of equi‐density particles have been fluidized in a gas–solid fluidized bed to study the mixing characteristics. A correlation for the mixing index has been developed for these mixtures. The mixing index for the ternary mixtures has also been calculated by the already av
A new closure relationship for the fluid-particle interaction force has been developed for the CFD modelling of gas fluidized beds. As a first step in verifying the applicability of the new closure, the mono-dimensional version of the equations of change for the fluid and solid phases has been exami
