Abstract: Fine particles are difficult to fluidize due to strong interparticle attraction. An attempt has been made to study the bed expansion of Silica gel (dp=25ìm) powder in presence of an acoustic field. A 135mm diameter fluidized bed column activated by an acoustic field from without sound intensity to 145dB and frequency from 90Hz to 170Hz was studied. The effects of sound pressure level, sound frequency and particle loading on the bed expansion were investigated. Experimental results showed that, bed expansion was good in presence of acoustic field of particular frequency. In addition, it was observed that in presence of acoustic field bed collapses slowly.
Keywords: Acoustic; frequency; vibration; aspect ratio; fine powder; expansion.
