Abstract
Experimental data are presented using 2.7 mm and 4.9 mm spherical glass particles spouted with air to verify the particle circulation theory presented in Morgan et al. ( Chem. Engng Sci. 40, 1367–1377 (1985)) The particle mass flowrate, particle circulation rate and spout voidage profiles are in excellent agreement with the theory. To fit the particle velocity profile, the spout must contract slightly near the inlet to the bed and then expand to the average spout diameter.
