Answer / akhil
minimum fluidization velocity is the superficial velocity of
the fluid in a fluidized bed at which the drag force by the
upward moving fluid is equal to the weight of the solid
particles.

Answer / rajesh kumar bhagat
for minimum fludization velocity we increase the flow of fluid
in the bed to be fludized. then let the bed Seattle and re-
increase the flow rate of fluid, the minimum velocity at which
bed re-fludized is called minimum fludization velocity.
theoritically it can be determined by erguen equation or buke
pulmer equation.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 8 Yes | 6 No |
Answer / deepak
Minimum fluidization velocity is that,the pressure drop across the bed must be equal to the effective weight per unit area of the particles at the point of incipient fluidization.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 2 Yes | 0 No |
Answer / swaraj panda
superficial velocity at the point of fluidization is known as minimum fluidization velocity
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 2 Yes | 1 No |
Answer / pradeep
minimum fluidization velocity can be defined as the velocity
at which the pressure drop reaches to maximum,at that point
the velocity is called as minimum fluidization velocity
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 5 Yes | 5 No |
Answer / mustaqeem ali khan
when frictional forces counter the gravitational forces then it is called monimum fludization
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 2 Yes | 2 No |

Question 44 - In a non-dilute absorber, graphical method is used to represent the process. In an X - Y coordinate system, X-axis represents mole of carbon dioxide / mole of water and Y axis represents mole of carbon dioxide / mole of nitrogen. The inlet gas stream consists of 8 mol % of carbon dioxide in nitrogen. (a) Find the S / G minimum as a slope that goes through the point (0, 0.0304) and (0.0000488, 0.086957). (b) Find the actual slope of operating line when it is 1.5 times the S / G minimum! (c) Find the value of x for inlet gas stream when y = 1640 x, y is mole fraction of carbon dioxide in nitrogen.

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.16 : An engineer would like to invest his money in a home, business and bond. The implicit interest payment frequency is monthly for home loans, quarterly for business loans; semi annually for bonds. A generalized mathematical formula to calculate I = interest rate equivalence is I = (1 + i / N) ^ N - 1 where i = annual interest rate, N = number of payment per year. (a) Calculate the value of N for : (i) home loans; (ii) business loans; (iii) bonds. (b) For i = 0.08, find the value of I for : (i) home loans; (ii) business loans; (iii) bonds.
