Little is known about the influence of particle shape on the minimum fluidising velocity and bed expansion of liquid fluidised beds even for Newtonian liquids [Couderc, 1985 Flemmer et al., 1993]. The available scant data suggests that, if the diameter of a sphere of equal volume is used together with its sphericity factor, satisfactory predictions of the minimum fluidising velocity are obtainable from the expressions for spherical particles. Only one...
