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

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 liqu
This paper deals with the flow behaviour of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids flowing through packed and expanded beds. With the help of tube-bundle theory a generalized average shear-stress-shear-rate relationship is derived and found to predict the flow behaviour of power law as wel1 as non-power
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
