2025 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Fluidization: Experimental and Validation Studies of Particle Flows

This session focuses on experimental studies and validation research related to solids motion, mixing, heat transfer in circulating fluidized beds, and fluid dynamics modeling in reactive systems. Additionally, it welcomes novel measurement techniques in fluid-particle systems.
