## Abstract In the present investigation minimum fluidization velocity, __U__~mf~, in a two‐phase inverse fluidized bed reactor is determined using low‐density polyethylene and polypropylene particles of different diameters (4,6 and 8 mm) by measuring pressure drop. In a glycerol system __U__~mf~ d
