The accuracy of our model also required for the headloss occurring through an expanded bed to be more or less constant. According to our research, headloss should be constant once fluidization of the bed is achieved irregardless of the degree of expansion. We simulated a variety of different bed expansion and observed headloss to be constant. Click here for the Expanded Bed Headloss Experiment.
