    This document discusses a particle technology experiment involving a packed bed of solids in a cylindrical vessel. It provides calculations to determine properties of the bed such as volume, porosity, minimum fluidization velocity, and particle Reynolds number. It also analyzes the fluidization behavior and calculates values like superficial velocity and gas flow rate required to fluidize another particle system.
