(1981) is demonstrated to predict successfully the overall voidage of the mixed layer of incompletely segregated binary and ternary mixtures of liquid-fluidized solids that differ only in shape. Some speculations are then offered on the conditions for the success and failure of this model. Finally, methods proposed in the literature for estimating the deviations from the serial model for a binary-solids bed, which manifest themselves as a bed contraction, are discussed, with emphasis on packing models.展开更多

The improved model hasthe same computational burden as the original one and can be constrUcted directly according to given principles. Several simulationexamples are cited to verify this improved model. Extensions and open problems are also indicated. By means of this new model, serialProduotion lines with limitations of resources can be stUdied analytically.展开更多
