Creeping Flow of Generalized Newtonian Fluid Through a Fixed and a Fluidized-Bed of Spherical-Particles
The modified Rabinowitsch-Mooney equation, together with the corresponding relations for consistency variables has been employed to the flow solution of generalized Newtonian fluid through a fixed and a fluidized bed of spherical particles. The usefulness of the proposed equations has been verified for a power-law fluid, using both the published and original experimental results.
