For a detailed development of the above equation, refer to Effect of Bag Failure on Baghouse Outlet Loading, Theodore and Reynolds, JAPCA, August 1979, 870-872. 

Additional details on these equations (including their derivations) can be found in the book by Santoleri, Reynolds, and Theodore titled Introduction to Hazardous Waste Incineration (Wiley-Interscience, New York, 2000). 

Newton s law is applied in order to derive the linear momentum balance equation. Newton s law states that the sum of all forces equals the rate of change of linear momentum. The derivation/application of this law ultimately provides information critical to any meaningful analysis of most chemical reactors. Included in this information are such widely divergent topics as flow mechanisms, the Reynolds number, velocity profiles, two-phase flow, prime movers such as fans, pumps and compressors, pressure drop, flow measurement, valves and fittings, particle dynamics, flow through porous media and packed beds, fluidization— particularly as it applies to fluid-bed and fixed bed reactors, etc. Although much of this subject matter is beyond the scope of this text, all of these topics are treated in extensive detail by Abulencia and Theodore. ...
