Abstract
Confining a bed of relatively fine particles in a packing of coarse spheres prevents the onset of bubbly flow past their point of incipient fluidization. To improve present representations of confined fluidization, experiments on several cuts of solids of various density are analysed and interpreted by adapting some fundamental relationships of the fluidization theory to the peculiar geometry provided by the confining environment.
