Abstract
An experimental investigation was carried out to determine the effects of gas and liquid how rates and flow consistency index on the liquid-phase axial dispersion coefficient, pressure drop and the liquid holdup for two-phase downflow and upflow in a fixed bed. Water and non-Newtonian liquids were employed as liquid phase. The liquid-phase flow in a fixed bed was examined using the piston-diffusion-exchange (PDE) model. The time-domain analysis of tracer response data was used for the how model parameter estimation. Copyright (C) 1996 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd
