Question 46
CHNAT2 marksNeeds review
A vertically held packed bed has a height of 1 m, and a void fraction of 0.1, when there is no flow through the bed. The incipient (minimum) fluidization is set in by injection of a fluid of density 1 kg m
. The particle density (
) of the solids is 3000 kg m
. Acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m s
. The pressure drop (in Pa) across the height of the bed is ________ (round off to nearest integer).Log in to check the answer
