For a packed-bed comprising of uniform-sized spherical particles of diameter π·p,
the pressure drop across the bed is given by the Kozeny-Carman equation when the
particle Reynolds number (Rep)<1. Under this condition, minimum fluidization
velocity is proportional to π·pπ. Which one of the following is the CORRECT value
of exponent π ?
Correct : a
