Abstract
A correlation for the sedimentation velocity of suspended particles in a finite stationary fluid based on dynamic equilibrium of individual particles is presented. This correlation maybe useful over a wide range of Reynolds number and can be extended to obtain a general correlation predicting the pressure drop in fixed bed, provided that the voidage function is valid for all values of voidage. Results obtained were in good agreement with previous observations.
