5) Maximum fluidized velocity in fluidized bed reactor occurs when 1 point

drag force is equal to gravitational force.

drag force greater than gravitational force.

drag force less than gravitational force.

drag force equal to frictional force.

No, the answer is incorrect.

Score: 0
Accepted Answers:
drag force greater than gravitational force.

6) In Kunii-Levenspeil model, the equation for velocity of many bubbles (ub ) is given by 1 point

ub = ubr + (ut − umf )

ub = ubr /(ut − umf )

ub = ubr /(u0 − umf )

ub = ubr + (u0 − umf )

No, the answer is incorrect.
