Fluidization of spherical Particles beds by shear thinning polymer solutions in creeping flow region was investigated. The fall of the expansion rate was observed with the increasing shear thinning behaviour of polymer solutions tested. Simultaneously, the maximum bed porosity reached in the expande

✦ Synopsis
Ahstrati-The flow of generalized Newtonian liquids through a random fixed bed of particles has been investigated and a universal method of calculation of the creeping flow was suggested. The usefulness of this method has been verified experimentally for the flow of power law, Ellis and Sutterby liquids through fixed beds of different nonspherical particles.

An experimental investigation was carried out to determine the effects of gas and liquid flow rates and flow consistency index on the liquid-phase axial dispersion coefficient, pressure drop and the liquid holdup for two-phase downflow and upflow in a fixed bed. Water and non-Newtonian liquids were
Longitudinal liquid mixing in fluidized and fixed beds was studied using sinusoidal and pulse response techniques. The tracer used was light emissive fluorescein dye. A systematical study of liquid phase dispersion by varying particle size, fluid velocity, fraction voids, and particle density was co
