Abstract
The Carman channel model for flow in packed beds is shown to apply for the minimum fluidization velocity and homogeneous fluidized beds. The channel model also provides correlations for mass transfer in the laminar flow region and heat and mass transfer for turbulent flow in a packed bed. Tube bundle data for pressure drop and heat transfer are also evaluated as a packed bed with the channel model.

## Abstract Fluidized beds are particularly favored as chemical reactors because of their ability to exchange heat through immersed heatβexchange surfaces. However, little is known about how the heatβexchange process works on a singleβparticle level. The most commonly applied theory of fluidized be
