A proposal of a hydrodynamic model to low Reynolds numbers in a liquid-solid inverse fluidized bed reactor
ISSN 2007-2422
•
The equation proposed in this paper can
make a better approach by the balance of forces
with a larger number of data in the literature.
It is important to identify the study variables,
also, to a dimensional analysis, since grouping
variables in dimensionless numbers such as the
Reynolds and Archimedes allow the handling
of mathematical models takes just a simple
manner, also, dimensionless numbers handling
facilitates the design and scale reactors.
