Abstract
A modified shape normalization, which was successfully used earlier fo r monoporous pellets, has now been defined for pellets which have a bi porous structure. Such a normalization consolidates the eta-phi curves into a single curve. The biporous effectiveness for any arbitrary sha pe can now be evaluated with a high degree of accuracy using the infin ite slab effectiveness. With this modification, the spread in the curv es for various shapes is less than 6%.
